Conﬁguring HA HP CIFS

Conﬁgure a Highly Available HP CIFS Server

Chapter 7160

NOTE If you plan to use a username mapping ﬁle, HP recommends that you

conﬁgure its location under the /etc/opt/samba directory. This way,

when changes are made, all nodes will be updated.

Below is an example of copied data from the required HP CIFS

Server directories to the logical volumes in the volume group

vgsamba.

mkdir /tmp/share1_copy /tmp/share2_copy /tmp/etc_copy

mount /dev/vgsamba/lvol1 /tmp/share1_copy

mount /dev/vgsamba/lvol2 /tmp/share2_copy

mount /dev/vgsamba/lvol3 /tmp/etc_copy

cp -r /opt/share1/* /tmp/share1_copy

cp -r /home/share2/* /tmp/share2_copy

cp -r /etc/opt/samba/* /tmp/etc_copy

umount /tmp/share1_copy

umount /tmp/share2_copy

umount /tmp/share3_copy

rm -rf /tmp/share1_copy /tmp/share2_copy /tmp/etc_copy

2. Create a directory for the HP CIFS Server cluster package.

mkdir /etc/cmcluster/samba

3. Copy the sample scripts samba.conf, samba.cntl and samba.mon

from /opt/samba/HA to /etc/cmcluster/samba on the primary

node. Make all of the scripts writeable.

cp /opt/samba/HA/active_standby/samba.* /etc/cmcluster/samba

chmod 666 samba.conf samba.cntl samba.mon

4. Customize the sample scripts for your MC/ServiceGuard

conﬁguration. A sample customization of the HA HP CIFS Server

package conﬁguration, control and monitor scripts is shown below.

5. Ensure that the control (samba.cntl) and monitor (samba.mon)

scripts are executable.

chmod 777 samba.cntl samba.mon

Edit the samba.conf Conﬁguration File

To conﬁgure the samba.conf conﬁguration ﬁle, complete the following

tasks on the Primary Node of your MC/ServiceGuard cluster:
