Setup Celerra File Server

After the agent has been installed, perform the following tasks from the command prompt on the Celerra File Server using this procedure:

  1. Set permissions to archive and recover Unix data.
  2. Enable access to the data on the file server.
  3. Define the proxy computer where the archiver agent is installed.
  4. Establish communication between the file server and the proxy computer.
5. Ensure that the Celerra file system is configured for CWORM=off.  
6. Obtain the name and the IP address of the computer on which the Celerra File Archiver Agent is installed.  
7. Enable the DHSM services on the Celerra Data Mover:

Syntax:
server_http <server_name_where_file_system_resides> -service dhsm -start

Example:
server_http server_4 -service dhsm -start

 

  
8. Disable the digest authentication on the Celerra Data Mover:

Syntax:
server_http <server_name_where_file_system_resides> -modify dhsm -authentication none

Example:
server_http server_4 -modify dhsm -authentication none

  
9. Verify that the dhsm services have been enabled and the digest authentication has been disabled by running the following command on the Data Mover:

Syntax:
server_http <server_name_where_file_system_resides> -info

The correct values should be returned as follows:

Active: True

Authentication: none, Realm: DHSM_Authorization

  
10. On the command prompt type the following to set archive and recover permissions for Unix data:

Syntax:
server_param <server_name_where_share_resides> -f cifs -modify acl.extacl -value 28

Example:
server_param server_4 -f cifs -modify acl.extacl -value 28
 

Where "server_4" is the name of the server where the share resides.

 [root@celerra_cs ~] $ su root
Password:
[root@celerra_cs nasadmin]# server_param server_4 -f cifs -modify acl.extac1 -value 28
server_4 : done
11. Type the following to enable EMC Celerra File Mover on the File System where the CIFS share resides:

Syntax:
fs_dhsm -modify <file_system_name_where_share_resides> -state enabled

Example:
fs_dhsm -modify FS3 -state enabled
 

Where "FS3" is the name of the File System where the share resides.

 [rootcelerra_cs nasadmin]# fs_dhsm -modify FS3 -state enabled
FS3:
state                = enabled
offline attr:        = on
popup timeout        = 0
backup:              = passthrough
read policy override = none
log file:            = on
max log size:        = 10MB

Done
12. Type the following to add the proxy server to the list of valid target hosts:

Syntax:
server_http <server_name_where_file_system_resides> -append dhsm -hosts <IP_address_of_proxy_server>

Example:
server_http server_4 -append dhsm -hosts 172.19.97.208
 

Where "server_4" is the name of the server where the file system resides, and where "172.19.97.208" is the IP address of the proxy server (in this example).

 [root@celerra_cs nasadmin]# server_http server_4 -append dhsm -hosts 172.19.97.208
server_4 : done
13. Type the following to connect the EMC Celerra Data Mover with the proxy computer: 

CIFS Syntax:
fs_dhsm -connection <file_system_name_where_share_resides> -create -type cifs -admin <domain\\administrator> -secondary '<\\xyz.company.com\shared_dir_where_stubs_reside>' -local_server <fully_qualified_celerra_server_name> -password -read_policy_override full

It is recommended to use the fully qualified domain name for domain name resolution in some environment settings.

CIFS Example:
fs_dhsm -connection FS3 -create -type cifs -admin testlab\\administrator -secondary '\\pavo3.testlab.<company>.com\pavo3_celerra' -local_server celerra_dm4.<company>.com -password -read_policy_override full
 

Where "FS3" is the name of the file system where the share resides, and where "\\pavo3.testlab.<company>.com\pavo3_celerra" is the UNC path of the virtual directory on the proxy server (in this example).

CIFS Example for Virtual data Mover (VDM)

fs_dhsm -connection vdm_fs -create -type cifs -admin testlab\\administrator -secondary '\\pavo3.testlab.<company>.com\pavo3_celerra' -local_server celerra_vdm2.<company>.com -password -read_policy_override full
 

where "vdm_fs" is the name of the file system set up on the VDM, "\\pavo3.testlab.<company>.com\pavo3_celerra" is the UNC path of the proxy stub folder, and "celerra_dm2.<company>.com" is the virtual data mover.

 [root@celerra_cs nasadmin]# fs_dhsm -connection FS3 -create -type cifs -admin testlab \\ administrator -secondary '\\pavo3.testlab.<company>.com\pavo3_celerra' -local_server celerra_dm4.<company>.com -password -read_policy_override full
FS3:
state                = enabled
offline attr:        = on
popup timeout        = 0
backup:              = passthrough
read policy override = none
log file:            = on
max log size:        = 10MB
 cid                 = 1
   type                 = CIFS
   secondary            = \\ids35vm3.testlab.<company>.com\ida35vm3_celerra\
   state                = enabled
   read policy override = full
   write policy         =        full
   user                 =
   options              = cgi=n

Done
