Hi there,
IHAC running SMO on linux and OPS/PRT mgr on windows.
They want protection configured in their profile as listed in the profile below.
I wonder what the perquisites are in terms of authentication, as the windows machine and the linux box are not in the same authentication domain?

I tried to use "sd-user", added this user to DFM and used in the snapdrive config, but got access denied to the volumes having the database files.

However after checking the logs I added the dfm administrator "rac12\oracle" result; it seems to work (did not check all variations yet).
 
I actually think there needs to be a common authentication scheme (LDAP or bringing the Linux Oracle Servers in Active Directory) in order to make this work, is that correct? Anny comments from your side would be appreciated since I'm digging around is this for quite some time.
What is required to make this work?
