The System has successfully rebooted dialog is displayed after rebooting (system reboot may take up to 10 minutes to complete). Configuring Active Directory Settings You need to configure the Active Directory setting to direct your DR Series system to join or leave a domain that contains a Microsoft Active Directory Service (ADS). To join an ADS domain, complete steps 1 through 4 in the following procedure (to leave an ADS domain, skip to step 5). When you join the DR Series system to an ADS domain, this disables the Network Time Protocol (NTP) service and instead uses the domain-based time service. NOTE: If you use the command line interface (CLI) to join the DR Series system into the domain, you might notice that Global View contains multiple, unnecessary entries. Dell recommends that you use the DR Series system GUI (and not CLI commands) for Global View related operations, including domain join/leave. To configure the DR Series system for a domain using ADS, complete the following: 1. Select System Configuration → Active Directory. The Active Directory page is displayed. NOTE: If you have not yet configured ADS settings, an informational message is displayed in the Settings pane in the Active Directory page. 2. Click Join on the options bar. The Active Directory Configuration dialog is displayed. 3. Type the following values in the Active Directory Configuration dialog: • In Domain Name (FQDN), type a fully qualified domain name for the ADS; for example, AD12.acme.com. (This is a required field.) NOTE: Supported domain names are limited to 64 characters in length and can only consist of a combination of A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and three special characters: a dash (-), a period (.), and an underscore (_). • In Username, type a valid user name that meets the user name guidelines for the ADS. (This is a required field.) NOTE: Supported user names are limited to 64 characters in length and can only consist of a combination of A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and three special characters: a dash (-), a period (.), and an underscore (_). • In Password, type a valid password that meets the password guidelines for the ADS. (This is a required field.) • In Org Unit, type a valid organizational name that meets the organization name guidelines for the ADS. (This is an optional field.) 4. Click Join Domain to configure your system with these ADS settings (or click Cancel to display the Active Directory page). The Successfully Configured dialog is displayed when successful. NOTE: If you configure CIFS container share paths, these will be displayed in a CIFS Container Share Path pane in the Active Directory page. 5. To leave an ADS domain, click Leave in the Active Directory page. The Active Directory Configuration dialog is displayed. 6. Leaving the configured ADS domain requires that you enter the following: a. In Username, enter a valid user name for the ADS domain. b. In Password, enter a valid password for the ADS domain. 7. Click Leave Domain to direct your DR Series system to leave the ADS domain (or click Cancel to display the Active Directory page). The Successfully Configured dialog is displayed when successful. 48
