Symptoms

Machine accounts in Active Directory are given a "bad password" error when attempting to connect through to the IPS$ share on the 7000 Unified Storage System.

User accounts such as Administrator appear to work fine when accessing IPC$
The isue is only seen with the machine built-in accounts. For instance when using Microsoft SCCM (System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2/R3/SP2 and above) so that all required software can be installed on other windows clients from a particular share.

When attempting to access share using a "normal" AD user account everything works fine.
Permission on the share are seems to be fine, and problem is only with the authentication.

To discuss this information further with Oracle experts and industry peers, we encourage you to review, join or start a discussion in the My Oracle Support Community - 7000 Series ZFS Appliances

Cause

See <SunBug: 6822262> for more details.
When using "Client push installation functionality" found on SCCM 2007, the problem is seen when the SCCM user (a default SCCM Machine account) tries to access the share and gets a permission denied error.
SCCM will only use the computer account to authenticate to the 7000 Unified Storage System.
SCCM 2007 provides new feature of authentication via computer accounts instead of normal user account for security reasons.

Solution

Issue is fixed in latest ak firmare 2011.1.3.0 [ak-2011.04.24.3.0]. Please upgrade to this version or later.
