Alfresco 3.0 CE - CIFS instable...

[dellui]

Hi all!

I'm Using Alfresco CE 3.0 in a production environment on a cluster of 4 nodes in Active / Active on shared file system GFS 2 TB disks in FC.
Currently I have enabled CIFS on all 4 nodes. My problem is that randomly (especially when I do write operations), the CIFS client side crashes or block for some minutes.
Given that I realized too late that it is better to use the enterprise edition (I did too customizations and now I can not easily switch to other versions), I wish I had some information on how to configure CIFS to make it stable. Think it is better to enable CIFS on only one node?

…for me is very critical  , so I can also pay for expert advice!  :mrgreen:

Yes try one node only.    CIFS does not cluster in version 3.

Thanks for your answer!
Another question: Can I leave 4 services enabled and only use one? (so I can have high availability) or should I leave only one enabled and all other disabled ?

Thanks.

It shouldn't matter if you enable the service but don't use it.
