4.0.0 HP PolyServe Software for Windows File Serving administration guide (T5392-96047, March 2010)
Address: Specify either the IP address or the DNS name that will be associated with
this Virtual CIFS Server. The DNS name must already be configured in the DNS
service.
DNS/NetBIOS name: Use this field to specify a DNS/NetBIOS name. The NetBios
name is calculated from the DNS name that you enter here. If Dynamic DNS is
enabled on the DNS server, HP PolyServe Software will add the DNS name to the
DNS service. If not, you will need to update the DNS server with the corresponding
host record for the Virtual CIFS Server IP address. The name entered in this field
cannot include spaces.
Application: An “ application” provides a tag to group Virtual CIFS Servers and Virtual
File Shares on the Applications tab. All of the resources associated with the application
can then be treated as a unit. You can specify a new application name, select an
existing application name, or leave this field blank. However, if you do not assign
a name, Matrix Server will use the IP address of the Virtual CIFS Server as the
application name.
Policy: The policy determines the failback action that the Virtual CIFS Server will take
following a failover to a backup node.
