  EMC Celerra File Server can be configured to use either CIFS or HTTP access. CIFS connection is highly recommended.

Follow the steps given below to configure the IIS Server on the computer where archiver agent is installed.

1. Navigate to Services on the proxy client computer | Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.

Right-click Default Web Site point to Newand click Virtual Directory.

2. On Virtual Directory Creation Wizard click Next.

 

3. Enter Alias name for the Virtual Directory to be created, which can be any descriptive name (e.g., Celerra_proxy) and click Next.
4. Type in or Browse the local Path to the directory that will be used as a Virtual Directory and click Next.
5. Select the options for Read, Write and Browse permissions and click Next.
6. Click Finish.
7. Navigate to the newly created Virtual Directory, right-click Properties.

Click the Directory Security tab.

Under Authentication and access control section click Edit.

HTTP Syntax:
fs_dhsm -connection <file_system_name_where_share_resides> -create -type http -secondary <http://proxy_server_name/virtual_directory_name> -read_policy_override full -cgi n

HTTP Example:
fs_dhsm -connection FS6 -create -type http -secondary http://exsrv1/celerra_proxy -read_policy_override full -cgi n

Where "FS6" is the name of the file system where the share resides, and where "http://exsrv1/celerra_proxy" is the URL of the virtual directory on the proxy server (in this example).

Note:

The following syntax can be used to create a connection and to provide access credential in a single command. Example
fs_dhsm -connection FS3 -create -type http -secondary <http://exsrv1/celerra_proxy> -read_policy_override full -cgi n -user <domain\\username> -password <user_password>

[root@scylla bin]# fs_dhsm -connection FS6 -create -type http -secondary http://exsrv1/celerra_proxy -read_policy_override full -cgi n

state                = enabled
