The CIFS server create-process uses the default organizational unit (OU) CN=Computers during setup unless you specify a different OU. You can move CIFS servers to different OUs after setup.

Steps

  1. On the Windows server, open the Active Directory Users and Computers tree.

  2. Locate the Active Directory object for the storage virtual machine (SVM).

  3. Right-click the object and select Move.

  4. Select the OU that you want to associate with the SVM

Results

The SVM object is placed in the selected OU.
