6.0.1 HP IBRIX X9000 Release Notes

on a CIFS file shared out by serverX, specify serverX\user1 in the Add dialog box on the
security tab. If you later use the Windows security tab to look at this ACL, the server name will
have been replaced by LOCAL (the CIFS server performs this remapping to ensure that local users
are symmetric between all servers in the cluster, and are not specific to any one machine name
in the cluster.)
• When joining a CIFS domain, the $ character cannot be used in passwords unless it is escaped
with a slash (\) and enclosed in single quotes (' '). For example:
ibrix_auth -n IB.LAB -A john -P 'password1\$like'
• If you are using a Windows Vista client and running more than a single copy of Robocopy from
that client, a hang is possible. The work around is to disable the SMB2 protocol in the registry.
To modify the registry, take the following steps on each file serving node:
1. Enter the Registry Editor:
/opt/likewise/bin/lw-edit-reg
2. Locate the following entry:
"SupportSmb2"=dword:00000001
Change the entry to:
"SupportSmb2"=dword:00000000
3. Restart the likewise server:
/etc/init.d/lwreg stop
/opt/likewise/bin/lwsm start srvsvc
You may also need to restart the Windows client, as the original negotiated protocol, SMB2, may
be cached by the client. Restarting the client renegotiates the protocol back to SMB1.
• Be sure to remove Active Directory users from the X9000 share admin list before removing them
from Active Directory. If you remove an Active Directory user from Active Directory before removing
the user from the X9000 share admins list, an error is reported when you attempt to change the
share admins list. If you are seeing errors from this situation, rejoin Active Directory and remove
all share admins. For example:
ibrix_auth -n ib.lab -A [e-mail] -P fusion -S "share
admins="
Then run ibrix_auth again to specify the new list of share admins:
ibrix_auth -t -S "share admins=[ib\Administrator]"
Block snapshots
• Snapshot creation may fail while mounting the snapshot. The snapshot will be created successfully,
but it will not be mounted. Use the following command to mount the snapshot manually:
ibrix_mount -f <snapshotname> -m /<snapshotname>
• Quotas are disabled on block level snapshots (for example, MSA2000 snapshots) and the quota
information from the origin file system is not carried to the block level snap file system. Block level
snapshots are temporary file systems that are not writable. Users should not query quota information
against block level snap file systems.
• After the initial creation of a snapshot, it can take 4 to 6 minutes to mount the snapshot.
