Create a CIFS Share
Spectra Logic recommends using Active Directory to control access to CIFS shares on the
Verde arrays. However, if your Windows operating system environment does not use
Active Directory, you can enable local administrator status on the system to allow a
specified user to access the CIFS shares in a Windows workgroup environment. The
username and password configured on the BlackPearl system are used to access the CIFS
shares when using a Windows workgroup environment.
Join an Active Directory Domain
If your Windows environment uses Active Directory, you must join an Active Directory
domain before creating a CIFS share. See
Configure the Active Directory Service on page 187
for more information.
