Hi,

We are going to setup HyperScale X to our customer. As you know they need to create DNS records. Customer said they will do DNS records but they have a question for Active Directory integration. They are using IDM server for adding Linux servers to Windows AD. Question is;

Is it possible to add HyperScale X nodes to AD with IDM?

I asked this to Commvault chat. Answer is;

“So at the moment Hyperscale is not able to join Active Directory. Development has a process for Hyperscale 1.5 to use LDAP to authenticate with Active Directory, but not HSX yet.”


Thanks for coming back and sharing!


Hello All, do we have any updates to this original query..?


Looking into this for you, @Praveen Raghupathi !


I found this thread, are there any news here? It would be great if we could add our hyperscale X nodes in AD.

Yes, you can join HSX nodes to AD starting in 11.32.28+.

Maintenance Release 11.32.28 (Nov 07, 2023)
https://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/expert/files/service_pack/updates/11_32_28.htm
 


- Upgrade the HSX nodes to 11.32.28 (or later)
- After MR update, download and apply HSX OS updates
- Use realm to add the HSX nodes into AD (e.g., instructions)

Note:  AD integration is not currently supported with Restricted Root configuration.

Thanks,
Scott
