When configuring a NAS environment from shell the 'sysadmin' user envokes (/usr/local/quantum/bin/run-panshell) it is sometimes necessary to use the reg command to modify registry setting.

 

To show all registry settings use this command.

 

reg show all

 

Example output:

 

G300:spsgw1> reg show all
admin.email_address = 'sysadmin'
admin.pwd_reset_verification_code = ''
autosupport.enabled = 1
autosupport.product_key = ''
autosupport.quantum_password = ''
autosupport.quantum_user = ''
autosupport.send_to_quantum = 1
cifs.acl_xattr_ignore_system_acls = 1
cifs.bind_interfaces = ''
cifs.case_sensitive = 'auto'
 

To look at a specific sub set of reg setting pass the first object of the key to the reg show command.

 

Example command and output:

 

G300:spsgw1> reg show cifs
cifs.acl_xattr_ignore_system_acls = 1
cifs.bind_interfaces = ''
cifs.case_sensitive = 'auto'
cifs.config.global.workgroup = ''
cifs.dc_list = '*'
cifs.default_case = 'lower'
cifs.ea_support = 1
cifs.enabled = 1
cifs.export_share.enabled = 0

 

To change a registry setting use the 'reg set <key>' command.

 

Example command and output:

 

G300:spsgw1> reg show cifs.enabled
cifs.enabled = 1

G300:spsgw1> reg set cifs.enabled = 0
Registry key 'cifs.enabled' set to '0'.

G300:spsgw1> reg show cifs.enabled
cifs.enabled = 0
 

If you dont know the default key entry you can revert back with the reg reset command.

 

Example command and output:

 

G300:spsgw1> reg reset cifs.enabled
Registry key cifs.enabled has been reset.

G300:spsgw1> reg show cifs.enabled
cifs.enabled = 1
 

 

It should be know that MOST registry keys will be reverted back when running a 'auth config local'  or  'auth reset config'.  However the following keys are persistent and will need to be reset manually or give the default value when doing a 'reg set'.

 

This is a list of keys that are reset when running the auth config or reset commands.

 

 

 

‘ldap.config.*’

‘kerberos.*’

‘cifs.workgroup_name’

‘cifs.realm’

‘cifs.joined_successfully’

‘cifs.dc_list’

‘cifs.enabled’

‘cifs.idmap_type’

 

 

Other keys will need to specific intervetion to reset.

 

Since these keys are poorly documented for support I'm starting a wiki page to explains specific keys we use and what the intent or bugs seen with them are.
