These options are only applicable when using the NetApp FPolicy cDOT detection method.

 

NetApp FPolicy cDOT SVM Logon Settings

Username

Provide the user name for the account that will be used to run the API calls against the vServer.

Password

Provide the password for the account that will be used to run the API calls against the vServer.



NetApp FPolicy cDOT Additional Settings

Management IP

Optionally, specify the IP address for the system where the Management node is on a separate IP from the IP used to access the shares.

Include Shares

Provide a list of alternate shares to register for. Alternate shares are automatically discovered and registered by default. This can be disabled by unchecking the Disable Alternate Share Lookup option.  For example, use this in cases where the alternate share points to the root level and should not be included.

Primary Server

This is an optional list of semi colon (;) delimited IP addresses of the system(s) where the FPolicy server is running (i.e. the system where PeerSync is running).  Events generated on the SVM from this IP will be automatically filtered unless the "Disable IP Filtering" option is used. Therefore it is important to note that in order for real-time detection to work, all changes must be made from different systems and not the system where PeerSync is running.

 

 

cDOT Options - Global

Asynchronous Mode

Enabled by default, PeerSync will not wait for a response from the FPolicy server, which enhances overall performance. Currently, this setting must always be enabled.

Disable Alternate Share Lookup

Alternate shares are automatically discovered and registered for by default. This can be disabled by unchecking the Disable Alternate Share Lookup option.  For example, use this in cases where the alternate share points to the root level and should not be included.

Click this button to display a short description about the source host PeerSync is connecting to. This also checks if the credentials provided gain access to the SVM.

 

 

Notes:

 

1.NetApp CIFS real-time support requires the NetApp option. Please visit http://www.peersoftware.com or contact Sales for additional information.

 

2.Generally performance will be optimal when PeerSync is installed on one of the machines involved in the synchronization process (Source or Target).
