• CIFS must be licensed on the cluster.
• A CIFS server must be configured and joined to a Windows Active Directory domain.
• The CIFS server admin status must be on.
• GPOs must be configured and applied to the Windows Active Directory Organizational Unit (OU) containing the CIFS server computer object.
• GPO support must be enabled on the CIFS server.
