The SMB service includes the SMB users for Instant Access and Universal Shares. Use the following procedures to manage the SMB service.
To view the status of the SMB service
- Open an SSH session to the server as the msdpadm user, or for NetBackup Flex Scale, as an appliance administrator.
- Run the following command:
setting smb status
To stop or start the SMB service
- Open an SSH session to the server as the msdpadm user, or for NetBackup Flex Scale, as an appliance administrator.
- Run one of the following commands:
setting smb stop
setting smb start
To view an SMB configuration parameter
- Open an SSH session to the server.
- Run the following command:
setting smb get-smb-param smb_configkey=<parameter>
Where <parameter> is the parameter you want to view.
To change an SMB configuration parameter
- Open an SSH session to the server.
- Run the following command:
setting smb set-smb-param smb_configsection=<section> smb_configkey=<parameter> smb_configvalue=<value>
Where <section> is the Samba configuration section, <parameter> is the parameter that you want to change, and <value> is the value that you want to change it to. For example:
setting smb set-smb-param smb_configsection="global" smb_configkey="server signing" smb_configvalue="mandatory"
