ONTAP 9 System Manager, Active Directory Authentication

MagicSteven — Wed, 24 Aug 2016 12:07:30 GMT

FAS2554 with ONTAP 9 RC1 in a cluster.

We've configured a CIFS svm, configured domain-tunnel and created user logins for both an AD user and an AD group, all for applications ssh, http and ontapi.

So... is this a known bug in ONTAP 9?

I didn't find anything, but those google skills...

According to documentation,

AD group account access is supported only with the SSH and ontapi applications.

Are you trying to use group account?

This is a known bug and will be fixed in 9.0GA.

Has to do with System Manager adding an extra "/" to the login names.

Actually, it was already fixed in ONTAP 9 RC2.

We've updated our clusters and can now log onto system manager with our AD accounts 🙂
