Mavericks and Microsoft DFS Namespace

Hi Gang,
I have a couple of Mavericks machines accessing data via Microsoft DFS on a Windows 2008 R2 server.
I read about the knows issues with Mavericks and SMB2, and have configured them to connect to the DFS Namespace using CIFS. Network captures - via Wireshark - confirm SMB1. One user just complained that she was "disconnected from the server"; at the approximate time in the pcap file, I found a burst of packets in SMB2 in the middle of the SMB packets. (I have a continuous capture running on some machines reporting issues)
The user was in Finder and had about 5 directories down the tree open in the panel view. What she described happening you could call the tree collapsing; all the panels went blank except for the root. To get back to work, she ejected the mounted Namespace and re-connected to it.
In the packets, I can see the end of the SMB2 burst returns error: status_no_such_file and the subsequent packets (SMB1) I see Query File All Info: Path: \ when before the SMB2 burst the query showed a path way down the directory tree.
Would anyone here have an idea what's up with that? And, how would it likely be associated with the trouble?
Thanks!

I saw some other threads that indicated certain fonts were causing the issue. I believe they had to remove Office and then reinstall which would only have the package fonts. Do a search and see if you can find those comments.

Mavericks and Microsoft Office compatibility?

I had Microsoft Office 2011 on my Imac and everything worked fine until I downloaded Mavericks a couple of days ago. Since then I cannot activate Office programs and it keeps asking the product key. To make things worse, it doesn't recognize my product key!
Is that a known problem? Is there a solution?
Thanks

Yes there is a solution.
Get in touch with Microsoft.
http://www.microsoft.com/mac/support
Do not let them talk you into paying a fee for phone support, and of course do not buy another product key.
Or you could try their forum for Mac products: http://support.microsoft.com/ph/15627

Mavericks and Microsoft Office 2011 (Problem even after Complete format of MBPRO)

After Mavericks Install on my MBPRO I ran into problems with Word 2011.
I completely updated it and Mavericks.
What happens is that when I open some Word files, Word crashes without a say, but I can open them as Guest.
I thought I would fix the problem by formatting my computer and reinstall everything on it, but I get the same problem!
I did not use time machine nor migration assistant or any such way to restore my computer, so there is no way that old user files could be causing this!
What on earth can I do!
BTW I have Microsoft Word: 14.3.8
MAC OS X
Software OS X 10.9 (13A603)

BSOD on Server 2012 running dfs namespace and dfs replication roles with deduplication

Hello,
I have recently setup 2 dfsn & dfsr servers, both 2012 one physical the other virtual.
The idea is to have one server as primary and the other as a failover \ DR.
The primary server is virtual and connects via mpio \ iscsi to a dell san, using the provided dell DSM Drivers.
The secondary server is physical with local disk for storage.
I copy files to a namespace setup to always prefer the primary server, these files are then replicated across to the secondary.
I have also turned on deduplication on both servers to get the most out of the available storage.
This has been working well for 6 months or so, there have however been 2-3 occasions where the primary virtual server has crashed and blue screened causing the DFSR database to undergo a full consistency check.
The bug check errors i have managed to extract from the Memory.dmp and mini dump are as follows:
*                        Bugcheck Analysis
REFERENCE_BY_POINTER (18)
Arguments:
Arg1: 0000000000000000, Object type of the object whose reference count is being lowered
Arg2: fffffa80379a3070, Object whose reference count is being lowered
Arg3: 0000000000000002, Reserved
Arg4: ffffffffffffffff, Reserved
   The reference count of an object is illegal for the current state of the object.
   Each time a driver uses a pointer to an object the driver calls a kernel routine
   to increment the reference count of the object. When the driver is done with the
   pointer the driver calls another kernel routine to decrement the reference count.
   Drivers must match calls to the increment and decrement routines. This bugcheck
   can occur because an object's reference count goes to zero while there are still
   open handles to the object, in which case the fourth parameter indicates the number
   of opened handles. It may also occur when the object?s reference count drops below zero
   whether or not there are open handles to the object, and in that case the fourth parameter
   contains the actual value of the pointer references count.

I have searched for others having a similar problem but have not managed to find much.
The memory dump at the time of the crash does seem to hint at a problem with DFSR.exe.
The setup seems to be running fine again now and is going through its consistency checks, it is just a major inconvenience and will only get worse as the DFS becomes busier and approaches capacity.
The plan was to put this setup into production however with the unpredictability of blue screen reboots I cannot see this happening until I can find a fix or work around.
I have yet to see this problem occur on the other (physical) server, this is pretty much identical in configuration apart from its storage access.
My thoughts are a possible bug in the DFSR component or a bug in the DSM Drivers used for the iSCSI SAN connection or maybe a combination of the two.
Any help, thoughts or suggestions greatly appreciated
Thanks

Hi,
Please install the current version of Dfssvc.exe Dfsc.sys Dfsrs.exe for Windows Server 2012.

The issue may be due to the DFSRoot folder has lost NTFS permission. Some reasons why DFS root lose ACLs Links are listed in the article below:

To narrow down the issue, you could remove the DFS role to check if the issue related to the dfs namespace and dfs replication roles.

HT2476 I recently upgraded to OS X Mavericks and now I cannot open any of my Microsoft apps. Is Mavericks not compatible with Microsoft Office 2008? If not, how do I revert back to Mountain Lion?

I recently updated my Macbook Pro to OS X Mavericks and now I cannot access any of my Microsoft Office apps. Is Mavericks not compatible with Microsoft Office? If not, how do I revert?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Office 2008 and 2011 are compatible with OS X Mavericks.
If you are using Office 2008, I highly recommend you to reinstall the latest Office 2008 update > http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36897 Note that Office 2008 is not supported by Microsoft anymore

AppleWorks 6 and Microsoft Office in Mavericks?

I want to upgrade my 13" MacBook Air from OS 10.6.8 to Mavericks, but I need to continue using AppleWorks 6.2.9 and Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac. How can this be accomplished?

Neither will work in any version of OS X after Snow Leopard.
Office 2004 and Other Applications Don't Work in Lion/Mountain Lion
If you have Office 2004 which is a PPC-only suite, it will not work in Lion/Mountain Lion. You need to upgrade to Office 2011 - Mactopia - or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, that is functionally similar to Office 2007 for Windows except it works on Lion/Mountain Lion.
You may want to consider as well:
These two suites are similar to Libre Office but not as current or as well-supported:
NeoOffice
Open Office
And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
Pages - word processing and layout
Keynote - presentation
Numbers - spreadsheet
Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
As for other software, any PPC-based software will not run in Lion or Mountain Lion because Rosetta is no longer part of OS X. You will need to upgrade to Intel versions of the software.
(Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

Slow Files Copy File Server DFS Namespace

I have two file servers running on VM both servers are on different physical servers.
Both connect with dfs namespace.
The problem part is both servers never have same copy speed.
Sometime very slow files copy about 1MBps on FS01 and fast copy 12MBps on FS02.
Sometime fast on FS01 and slow on FS02.
Sometime both of them slow..
So as usual I reboot the servers. Doesn't work.
Then I reboot the DC01 also doesn't work. There is another brother DC02.
After I reboot DC02, one of the FS become normal and another FS still slow.
FS01 and FS02 randomly. They never get faster speed together.
Users never complain slow FS because 1MBps is acceptable for them to open word excel etc.,.
The HUGE problem is I don't have backup when the slow FS days.
The problem since two weeks I'm giving up fixing it myself and need help from you expert guys.
Thanks!
DC01, DC02, FS01, FS02 (Win 2012 and All VMs)

Hi,
Since the slow copy is also occurred when you tried the direct copy from both shared folder, you could enable the disk write cache on the destination server to check the results.

Is it a safe to install DFS namespace service to an Active Directory Server?

Hi All,
Is it safe and/or best practice to install a DFS namespace server to a server that runs an Active directory services?
I have read a blog in which, as much as possible, active directory server should only run the directory services and no other installed services. But we're running out of a physical server and our virtual environments were already full so I'm hoping that
DFS namespace server could be installed to the AD server.
Also, if its possible , what could be the possible conflicts/problems/errors that we might encounter in the near future of running this 2 services into a single server?
Appreciate any suggestions and feedbacks.

Hi,
>>Is it safe and/or best practice to install a DFS namespace server to a server that runs an Active directory services?
Yes, we can host DFS namespace on domain controllers. However, as the following article states:
When deciding whether to host a DFS namespace on a domain controller, consider the following factors:
Only members of the Domain Admins group can manage a DFS namespace hosted on a domain controller.
If you plan to use a domain controller to host a DFS namespace, the server hardware must be sized to handle the additional load. As described in the previous question, root servers that host large or multiple namespaces require additional memory.

Deleted DFS Namespace still works

Hi All,
I inherited a network with a fairly poor DFS Domain based configuration as follows (with no replication):

1x Storage Server (NAS03)
All servers are 2012R2
DC01 was the name space server pointing at folder targets on NAS03, DC01 failed taking down the namespace, I siezed the roles on DC03, did a metadata cleanup to get rid of DC01, re-installed Windows on DC01 &
promoted it again, the namespace then begun to work again but it was unmanageable so I followed someone's recommendation
to remove the namespace using ADSIEdit & Regedit
I have created a new namespace with a new name (I kept getting an error that the configuration couldn't be read from AD when trying to re-use the old name) and that functions fine however the old namespace
still allows users to access files on it, the DFS console doesn't show it if i try to find namespaces to display.
any ideas how I can get rid of the old name space and any comments on if there was a better way to deal with the old one? (other than the obvious have more than 1 namespace server!)

Hi Daniel,
Since there are two domain controllers, please run "repadmin /syncall" in the environment to manually make them sync the information from AD database.
For more detailed information, please refer to the thread below:

Please also comfirm if you have deleted the registry key of the old DFS namespace in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Dfs\Roots

Mounting Samba folder on a DFS namespace

Hey Technet,
Is there any kind of document or an article, which can suggest me how to add a samba folder to a DFS Namespace.
Cheers, Alan.

Hi Alan,
You could add a folder targer to a DFS namespace. A folder target is the Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path of a shared folder or another namespace that is associated with a folder in a namespace.
For more detailed information, please refer to the article below:
Add Folder Targets

Slow MacMini after upgrading to Maverick and later Yosemite.

Gents,
I have had nothing than trouble with my MacMini (late 2009) since i installed Maverick and I hoped some things would improve with Yosemite. That did not happen. I have been through all possible "solutions" but no luck. I hope someone can help me. My MacMini was working like a charm until I installed Maverick.
(PS: My back-up drive is not connected as shown below)
This is my Etrecheck:

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Import already existing directory structure into DFS namespace?

Hi all,
I'm planning to migrate three file servers to a single DFS namespace and after reading the official docs and numerous blog posts I'm still unsure about the right way to do it.
The "main" server already has a share with a complex directory structure, called \\server1\team, and that share shall become the root of the new DFS namespace, lets call it \\domain.local\team.
Part of that already existing directory structure is this folder: \\server1\team\admin\communication\archive. The folder "archive" contains thousands of files in numerous folders and shall become a dfs link to another share \\server2\archive. But
before I can create the folder "archive" as a dfs link I have to create the folder "admin" in the dfs hierarchy of course, then below that the folder "communication"
Question: When I try to create a folder "admin" in the dfs namespace, I get the error message "the folder cannot be created in the namespace. The file exists."
Ok, the folder "admin" indeed exists, but how can I "import" this branch of the existing directory hierarchy into the dfs namespace?
Do I have to rename the existing folder "admin" to e.g. "admin2", then create the dfs folder "admin" and move the complete directory structure below "admin2" to "admin"? Or can I simply make the existing folder
"admin" a dfs folder?
Thanks in advance!
Regards
Christoph

Mandy, thanks for your feedback!
I have to describe my problem more precisely: creating the root of the new DFS namespace is *not* the problem. This worked for me exactly as you expained it. The problem appears when I try to create a folder below that root in the DFS namespace. If that
folder already exists in the share you cannot choose how to handle security settings but you get an error message, and that's it.
This may be helpfull to explain what I want to achieve:
Old structure:
\\server1\team - folder admin - subfolder "archive" - lots of subfolders and files
Now I want to move all files and folders from "archive" to \\server2\archive and link this share into the new DFS namespace, so that our users don't notice any change when they access that archive folder.
new structure:
1. Create DFS namespace root: \\domain.local\team -> \\server1\team   (works!)
            |
2. Create folder admin (problem!)
            |
3. Create subfolder "archive" -> \\server2\archive (not possible becaues "admin" couldn't be created)
I could perhaps create a DFS namespace with the root \\server1\team\admin\archive and link that to \\server2\archive, but I would like to avoid creating a new namespace for each share which from \\server2 which I mount into some subfolder of \\server1\team...
Thanks for reading.
Regards
Christoph

Yes. I ran it successfully on Mountain Lion and had no problems when I upgraded to Mavericks. Be sure to apply the latest software updates.

Can you Setup a Active Passive DFS namespace in the same site

Hi,
I would like to use DFS for profile replication. I know MS doesn't recommend it, but was wondering if you could setup DFS namespace in an Active/ passive contests in the same AD site. I think or what I can understand of DFS is that if the Fileserver is in
the same site it would select it randomly and you cant specify which server is the primary.
Basically what I want is to have users only access File server 1, but if this file server 1 goes down to be redirected to file server 2.
Thanks,
Shaun

You could have a read-only Replica but that really doesn't help you in terms of the automatic redirection thing. You could also set up a 2-node replication group and disable the referral for the folder(s) on one node like below:
However the "failover" would be manually Enabling, which I doubt fits the bill.
Otherwise, I'm not aware of any configuration of DFSR that allows you to do what you're talking about (maybe someone else will correct me.) HOWEVER, I suspect a design that fits your use case may be to create a DFS namespace that runs
on a file server cluster. That way if Node1 goes down, the cluster fails over, and the data continues to be available on Node2 when accessed via DFS.
If interested, there are a couple ways to approach DFS in combination with a cluster.
Configuration1: The cluster is configured to host the namespace as well as the folder targets (where the actual data is). CAVEAT - The cluster can only be configured as a standalone cluster.
Configuration2: Create a domain DFS namespace that resides on other servers.
\\domain\DFSRoot for example. Then point each of the leaves/folder targets to clustered shares. So you'd create a subfolder called "Profiles" that points to the clustered share that houses the profiles.
Just an idea. Hope this helps.

Changing policies to use DFS namespaces

We recently rolled out DFS replication and namespaces. I want to change the target in my policies from \\server\Home to the DFS namespace. I've followed the document and put {{\\server\Home}} in the Description of the namespace. The server hasn't actually changed, just the path statement in the policy target. I've created a test policy and it works when creating new users. My problem is with existing users. Storage Manager is up to date with the latest version.
This is the behaviour I see:
I change the target in the policy to the namespace. I go to Management Actions and Manage the user. In Pending Events, I see a Bypassable event with the message: Waiting for policy paths to become accessible -- 27:File system path already exists. When I bypass the event and Watch the file system, I see the folder on the server renamed to username-FSMOVE. A new folder is created and the data is copied. In Pending Events, the rest of the actions pass through fine. Sometimes the Home Directory attribute in AD is updated, mostly it is not.
My question is, is there any way to bypass all the data copies and simply update the Storage Manager database and the AD attribute? New users behave correctly, existing ones just need to be updated with the new path. I have nearly 100,000 users and several thousand groups. Clicking "bypass" one by one is a chore I don't look forward to. I'm almost tempted to simply wipe out SM and install new.
Any suggestions?

stober,
The good news is that you can multi-select events in Pending Events -
Ctrl+A to select an entire page of events, then clicking 'Bypass', works
just fine. You can also change the page size for the event list - by
default the paging is 1000 events, but it can be set to any number. I
wouldn't recommend trying to put 100,000 in the Pending Event list at
once -- the UI will be extremely slow -- but 5,000 is more than
reasonable for this sort of task.
What you're really after, though, is the Assign Home Directory
management action. This sets the Home Directory attribute on the target
users for the management action without doing any file system copies.
That should save you a great deal of work!
