To Join an Active Directory Domain
When the cluster joins a domain, it does so as a single unit under the cluster name, and all
nodes operate equally under the cluster name to authenticate against the domain. This
provides multi-point access to the domain through each node.
1.
Go to
Network > Windows/SMB
.
Option
Settings
Enable Windows
Networking (SMB)
Check the box to enable SMB and activate the options. Clear the
box to disable.
Member Of
Verify that it is set to Workgroup
.
NOTE: For the Active Directory Domain option, see
Active Directory Domain on page 65.
Workgroup Name
The default settings make the SnapScale available in the
workgroup named
Workgroup
. Enter the workgroup name to
which the cluster belongs.
Enable Guest Account
Check the box to allow unknown users (or users explicitly logging
in as
Guest)
to access the SnapScale using the guest account.
Clear the box to disable this feature.
Enable Opportunistic
Locking
Enabled by default. Opportunistic locking can help performance if
the current user has exclusive access to a file. Clear the box to
disable this feature.
Enable this SnapScale
as the Master Browser
Enabled by default. The SnapScale can maintain the master list of
all computers belonging to a specific workgroup. (At least one
Master Browser must be active per workgroup.) Check the box if
you plan to install this cluster in a Windows environment and you
want it to be able to serve as the Master Browser for a workgroup.
Clear the box to disable this feature.
Allow Root
Authentication
Check the box to allow root login to the cluster; clear the box to
disable this feature.
NOTE: The root password is synchronized with the cluster’s
admin password.
Enable SMB2
Enabled by default. This more robust version of SMB reduces
protocol overhead and is used by default by Windows Vista and
later clients. Clear the box to disable this feature (clients that
default to SMB2 will automatically connect via SMB1).
