Not using CIFS  Currently you need an Active Directory domain to join your CIFS shared folder server to. On the VNX there is the option of a standalone CIFS server, which currently isn’t supported on the VNXe  It might be possible in the future – for that roadmap info you would need to contact your local EMC or partner TC.

Is it possible to create a Shared Folder on the VNXe3100 without using LDAP/Active Directory?  We have a set of disparate Windows servers, each on its own subnet/vlan, that are not part of a domain, but each of its own group. We want to store the system logs to a shared folder, where the security officer can aggregate and monitor them.  Can you tell me if I'm on the right track?  Regards, Geert.
