Sun 7410 Unified Storage + SAN/Userspaces Question

[SLMHC]

Set it as above, thats fine. You then go into the access tab for the share and under Root Directory ACL you set everyone to full control.

Once you've done that, in windows go to \\SUNBOXNAME\ and you'll see your share, you can the right click on it and set the permissions up how you need them.

 

Thanks. I went with those settings with the Everyone permission from within the 7110 and used Windows to create the correct permissions on a subfolder of the sun share.

 

General process I used:

-create share from within s7000

-assign Everyone full control to the share from the root ACL and share ACL

-create my user folder and untick the inherit from parent button

-give full control to domain admin and SYSTEM

-give special rights to CREATOR OWNER (sub-folders and files only) for full control

-give special rights to authenticated users (this folder only) for traverse/ execute folder

 

SYSTEM and CREATOR OWNER were needed so that ADUC could create and assign the user home folder. Auth users was needed so that the user could access the user drive folder. As a hospital we don't have the huge user turnovers that a school would so setting up users through ADUC works for us.

 

That was a heck of a lot easier than trying to do it through the s7000.

 

Anyone have a copy or link to the Sun integration with Windows whitepaper? I'd love to give that a read.

thank you.

These guides are really useful, the only thing to remember though is that they were written for an earlier version of the software, so things have changed slightly and there are now more toys to play with like de-dupe :-)

Hi -

We are trying to implement 7410 in HA mode. The issue is that several UAT tests are failing and thus we are not able to use the storage in production.

We are using it as ISCSI storage for hyper-v cluster. The core issue is that the fail over time is so high that the vms reboot themselves before the LUN becomes available again.

I believe we are not doing things correctly, can someone point me to the right implementation architecture for HA?

We have 2 head nodes and 1 22TB J4440 with 2 logzillas as the configuration.

Please let me know

Thanks,

Himanshu

Sorry, absolutely no idea on the HA stuff, didn't have the budget to do this. Your best bet is to contact Sun/Oracle support, I'm sure they can resolve it for you.

Are you on the latest software release? If so read the comments here, not sure if it might be related to your problem: Sun Storage 7000 2010.Q1.1.0 Release : Fishworks

 

Like teejay said, best option is to get in touch with Oracle.
