Appendix

7.1

Create a Storage Device for CIFS

There are two options for HP Data Protector to authenticate to DR Series Deduplication Appliance through
CIFS.

1. DR joined into domain: Integrate HP Data Protector Server and DR Series Deduplication Appliance

with Active Directory

a. Ensure the AD user has appropriate ACLs to the DR Series Deduplication Appliance Container

share

b. Set the HP Data Protector service to run with this AD user <Domain\User>

2. DR is standalone CIFS server: Make sure HP Data Protector Inet service and CRS service use the

same Log On user. DR Series Deduplication Appliance also has the same username and password
defined in Local Workgroup Users.
Also make sure this CIFS user has appropriate access permission to the DR Series Deduplication
Appliance container share. HP Data Protector services will use this user to authenticate to DR
Series Deduplication Appliance share in Workgroup mode.

a. To set the password for local CIFS administrator on the DR Series Deduplication Appliance, log on

to the DR using SSH.

i. Log on with username Administrator and password St0r@ge!
ii. Run the following command:

Authenticate - - set - - user administrator

NOTE: The CIFS administrator account is a separate account from the administrator account used to
administer the appliance. After an authentication method is chosen, set the HP Data Protector service
account to use the CIFS administrator account.

b. Launch Microsoft Services Snap- in by clicking Start > Run > Services.msc > Enter.
c. Locate the Data Protector Inet and Data Protector CRS Service. Right- click Properties and click

the Log On tab.
