Configuring the HP StoreAll Windows client
While configuring the HP StoreAll Windows client, perform specific tasks on the Active Directory
server, the management console, and the HP StoreAll Windows client:
1.
Set up Services for UNIX v3.5 on the Active Directory global catalog server.
2.
To configure automatic user mapping, either specify your domain controllers, or allow mapping
of local users. See
3.
To configure static user mapping, complete the following steps, which are described in detail
in
"Configuring static user mapping" (page
a.
Define an administrative group with a GID of 0 (zero) on the Active Directory server.
b.
Create a default Windows user on the Active Directory server.
c.
Create an Active Directory proxy user, set permissions to read only UID/GID information,
and delegate control of user folders to this proxy user.
d.
Configure Active Directory settings on the management console to enable client lookups
on the Active Directory server.
4.
Set up and register each HP StoreAll Windows client on the management console.
The following procedures were tested on the Active Directory Users and Computers component of
the Microsoft Management Console shipped with Windows Server 2008.
Configuring Windows Services for UNIX (SFU)
Use this setup procedure as it applies to your operating system.
Services for UNIX on Windows 2008 or later
Windows Services for UNIX v3.5 can be downloaded from the Microsoft website. The HP StoreAll
OS Software does not require installation of the entire SFU v3.5 package. What is installed depends
on what your site supports, but you must install the server for the NIS component.
NOTE:
As you run the SFU Setup Wizard, you must select at least the server for the NIS component.
1.
On the Active Directory server, open the Control Panel, select Add or Remove Programs, and
click Add or Remove Windows Components. (For Windows Server 2008 and later, open
Control Panel in Programs, and click Turn Windows features on or off.)
2.
Select Active Directory Services, and click Details.
3.
Select Identity Management for UNIX, and click Details.
4.
Select Server for NIS.
5.
Click OK to close the Identity Management for UNIX screen, click OK to close the Active
Directory Services screen, and click Next to install.
You do not need to install SFU on servers running Windows 2008. User Mapping Services are
built in.
Configuring automatic user mapping
Use the automatic user mapping feature to assign IDs based on the users that are listed in the
domain controllers or to map local users. With automatic user mapping, the administrator does
not have to manage UIDs/GIDs; they are automatically and uniquely assigned to the users.
The following command configures the user mapping. To base mapping on the information in the
domain controllers, include the -d option. If your configuration does not include domain controllers,
use the -L option to enable mapping of local users. Be sure to enclose the DEFAULTWINUSERNAME
in double quotation marks.
ibrix_activedirectory -A [-d DOMAIN_NAMES] [-L] [-W "DEFAULTWINUSERNAME"]
After configuring automatic user mapping, register the Windows client, and start the service. See
"Registering HP StoreAll Windows clients and starting services" (page
