If you do not include this option, the Data Mover uses the first SMB/CIFS server that it finds.

Create the cepp.conf file
About this task
NOTE:
The following procedure is used for VNX systems only. For Unity systems, the configuration details are created when
setting up Events Publishing for each NAS server in Unisphere (
Storage
>
File
>
NAS Servers
>
Properties
>
Protection & Events
>
Events Publishing
).
For VNX systems, the
cepp.conf
file must be defined with the correct syntax to ensure that the EMC CEPA service
starts on the Data Mover.
Steps
1.
Log in to the system with your administrative username and password:
login:
<username>
password: <password>
where:
<username>
= username defined for the administrative account (default is nasadmin)
<password>
= password defined for the administrative account (default is nasadmin)
2.
Use a text editor to create a new, blank file in the home directory.
3.
Add the CEPA information that is necessary for your system. This information can be on one line, or on separate lines by
using a space and a "\" at the end of each line except for the last line and the lines that contain global options (
httpport
,
cifsserver
,
surveytime
,
ft
, and
msrpcuser
).
The cepp.conf file
contains sample
cepp.conf
files:
httpport=<httpport>
cifsserver=<cifsserver>
surveytime=<surveytime>
ft level=[0|1|2|3] {location=<location>} {size=<size>}
msrpcuser=<msrpcuser>
pool name=<poolname> \
servers=<IP_addr1>|<IP_addr2>|... \
preevents=<event1>|<event2>|... \
postevents=<event3>|<event4>|... \
posterrevents=<event5>|<event6>|... \
option=ignore or denied \
reqtimeout=<reqtimeout> \
retrytimeout=<retrytimeout>
where:
<httpport>
= HTTP port number on the CEE machine that VNX will use. If you set this
httpport=
parameter, you must also specify the same port number in the HttpPort entry of the Windows Registry at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\EMC\CEE\Configuration
<cifsserver>
= name of SMB/CIFS server used by the event publishing agent to access the files in the system. If you do
not include this option, the Data Mover uses the first SMB/CIFS server that it finds. If you include this option, the server
specified must be a physical Data Mover, not a VDM, in order for the EMC CEPA service to start on the Data Mover.
