VDM Copied using IP Replicator
Hi All,
I copied the VDM using the IP replicator so I want to know where can I see all the CIFS shares information and local groups information?
Thanks

do NOT do that while the original VDM/CIFS is still running - you'll end up with duplicate CIFS servers and client problems
you might also want to check that the file systems are mounted on the new VDM correctly
please take a look at the VDM and Replicator manuals available from Powerlink

However, please note that, you 'll not load the VDM at the destination manually - rather run the NAS Replication command to either switchover or failover to the DR side - you can do it from GUI or from CLI. The replication switchover or failover or reverse basically takes care of loading the VDM on the DR side and changing the VDM state of prod side (if available - based on the command you choose) to mounted.
The catch is, only one VDM in a replication pair can be in a loaded state, the other will be in Mounted state.
Also - I am sure you are doing file system replication (user data) as well - once you failover the VDM replication - you need to failover the File system replication session as well - in order to make the data available on the DR side.
Please refer to the Celerra Replicator manual for more details and clarifications.
Happy to post my 2 cents
Thanks,

yes
no, your CIFS server is already there in the VDM and joined
it will come up exactly as the old one - just with a new IP adress
yes
