The following CR has been filed:
6941787 Spuriuos message "DC discovery failed" upon refresh.
I've reproduced this in-house. My understanding is that CIFS server has
successfully located a domain controller and the above message is spurious.
BTW, your CIFS server wasn't restarting but some changes in the
configuration that might have triggered it to refresh.
Regards,
Natalie

Not every 5 minutes. I haven't added any shares for several days now.

This one spans this period:
[ Apr 5 23:29:43 Rereading configuration. ]
[ Apr 5 23:29:44 Executing refresh method (:kill). ]
smbd: DC discovery failed
[ Apr 5 23:34:44 Rereading configuration. ]
[ Apr 5 23:34:44 Executing refresh method (:kill). ]
smbd: DC discovery failed
