Hello,
Shall I create same name CIFS server in two different SVM in one node cluster? Both SVM's are targeted to one single domain.
eg.
1. cifs_server (vserver1)
2. cifs_server (vserver2)
Thanks
Bhanu
Solved! See The Solution
Hello, Bhanu
No is not possible, due to the Active Directory
You can have SVM with the same name in side the NetApp but not in the same AD
The solution is to create 2 SVM with different AD name, and made some think like DFS to centralize admin point
