To delete a CIFS share

1. To delete a share, enter the following:

   CIFS> share delete sharename [@virtual_ip]

   sharename	Specifies the name of the share that you want to delete.
   @virtual_ip	Specifies an optional full identifier allowing a virtual IP to access the specified CIFS share.

   For example:

   CIFS> share delete share1

2. To confirm the share is no longer exported, enter the following:

   CIFS> share show

   In the case of any remanent sessions (sessions that are not closed while deleting a CIFS share), Access Appliance displays the following output:

   CIFS> share delete share2

   The  following remanent sessions are present: 
   pid	nodename
   19293	clust_01

   Clients may still access share2 unless the relevant processes are killed.

   This is a rare situation, and it occurs if the following conditions are met:

   • CIFS server is online

   • CIFS share that is being deleted is ONLINE

   • There are some existing client connections with that CIFS share

   • While deleting the share, some remanent sessions are left

   If any of the conditions fail, then the CIFS> share delete command output displays as usual.
