Like you, I only use VDM's, (why wouldn't you?) Which means I have no physical CIFS servers.
CEPA wouldn't start, and no, you can't copy the cepp.conf to the VDM and start it there.
I had to create a CIFS server (just that, no storage) on every DM, local and remote. I could then start the CEPA service. None of this is in the CEE manual, support didn't really have any idea either.
You'll get errors if the Varonis IDU/Probe service is not installed or configured, including the EMC CEPA Windows service.
#protip Make sure, when adding these (annyoingly pointless) CIFS servers that you join the AD domain. This will mean that the CEPA service can talk to the CEPA server without configuring additional credentials on the DM.

My guess is that similar to CAVA you need a CIFS server configured on the physical data mover
Check the CEE manual
