by default you have to be domain admin to connect to the CIFS server, you can set this parameter which will allow the account that joined the CIFS server to add to be added to the local administrator group on the CIFS server.
Use one of the following ways if Domain Admins are not reachable:
$ server_param -f cifs -m dja AddAdminToLg -v 1
This enables the user performing the join to be automatically added to the CIFS server's Administrators Local Group when joining a CIFS server to the domain.
$ server_cifs -add compname= ,domain= ,local_users
Then you will be prompted to type the initial password of the local Administrator. You must change the initial password using Windows Security(ALT-CTRL-DEL)-> Change Password, and enter "Administrator" for "User name:" field, the CIFS server's IP address for "Log on to:" field before accessing the CIFS server using the local Administrator account.
Once this is done, you need to establish a connection to the CIFS server by the local Administrator account in Windows cmd:
net use \\ \C$ /user: \Administrator
Then you you will be able to connect to the CIFS server from the Windows Management console and perform administrative operations like adding the Celerra administrators in domain to the local Administrators group of the CIFS server.

Use computer management MMC, connect to the CIFS server and manage permissions.

yes this is a new cifs server and is joined to AD, should I be a domain admin to set the permissions or a cifs server local admin?
I've connected to the cifs server from my local work station using computer management ---> connect to remote system

if that CIFS server is joined to AD, your account does not have sufficient privileges. Is this a brand new CIFS server ?

i don't think you can without unjoining the CIFS server from AD. You just need to set this parameter
server_param -f cifs -m dja AddAdminToLg -v 1
and join the CIFS server to add, your account will be automatically added tot he admin group. You don't need to enable local groups.

Hi ,
After doing MMC to one of the CIFS server,Which is residing on celerra.
I could able to login . But when I am going to ->system tools->shared folders->open files On this server- we get the below error (attached) while trying to open "open files"
Error:
"Following error occurred while reading the list of files opened by the windows client
Error:1726 The remote procedure call failed"
That CIFS server is there on DM3, Apart from this server whichever are there on DM3 from all I can able open "opne files".
Some issue is there with this CIFS server only
Please suggest what could be the issue.
Regards
Masud

Please make sure that the account your are using is a member of the local Administrators group of that CIFS server.
You can also check if the server_cifs CLI command to list the open files works
see the man page for server_cifs or the CIFS manual for details on the audit option.
If the CLI works then your problem is not with the CIFS server but rather your local config on the Windows / user site.
If the problem then still persists please open a service request

P.S.: I would suggest to open a new post for a new topic instead of adding to a post from 3 years ago that was about a different topic
