You can add domain users and groups to a CIFS server’s local groups. These domain objects are registered in local databases on the cluster. If a domain object is renamed, the local databases must be manually updated.

About this task

You must specify the name of the storage virtual machine (SVM) on which you want to update domain names.

Steps

Set the privilege level to advanced: set -privilege advanced

Perform the appropriate action:

If you want to update domain users and groups and… Use this command…

If you want to update domain users and groups and…	Use this command…
Display domain users and groups that successfully updated and that failed to update	`vserver cifs users-and-groups update-names -vserver vserver_name`
Display domain users and groups that successfully updated	`vserver cifs users-and-groups update-names -vserver vserver_name -display-failed-only false`
Display only the domain users and groups that fail to update	`vserver cifs users-and-groups update-names -vserver vserver_name -display-failed-only true`
Suppress all status information about updates	`vserver cifs users-and-groups update-names -vserver vserver_name -suppress-all-output true`

Display domain users and groups that successfully updated and that failed to update

vserver cifs users-and-groups update-names -vserver vserver_name

Display domain users and groups that successfully updated

vserver cifs users-and-groups update-names -vserver vserver_name -display-failed-only false

Display only the domain users and groups that fail to update

vserver cifs users-and-groups update-names -vserver vserver_name -display-failed-only true

Suppress all status information about updates

vserver cifs users-and-groups update-names -vserver vserver_name -suppress-all-output true

Return to the admin privilege level: set -privilege admin

Example

The following example updates the names of domain users and groups associated with storage virtual machine (SVM, formerly known as Vserver) vs1. For the last update, there is a dependent chain of names that needs to be updated:

cluster1::> set -privilege advanced
