After cluster configuration, if the CVM of the slave node comes up before the management console, it results in an inconsistency in the nsswitch.conf file on all the cluster nodes. This affects the authentication of AD users while configuring CIFS shares.

(IA-21747)

Workaround:

Configure the nsswitch using CLISH.
```
Network > nsswitch conf
```
Stop and restart CIFS service.
