Sharing a file system as a CIFS home directory
When the file system in CIFS is set to homedirfs, the Access Appliance software assumes that the file system is exported to CIFS users in read and write mode. Access Appliance does not allow you to export the same file system as an CIFS share and a home directory file system (homedirfs). For example, if the file system fs1 is already exported as a CIFS share, then you cannot set it as homedirfs.
To export a file system set as homedirfs
- To request that a file system be used for home directories, you need to export the file system. Go to the CIFS mode and enter the following:
CIFS> share show ShareName FileSystem ShareOptions share1 fs1 owner=root,group=root,rw CIFS> set homedirfs fs1 ACCESS cifs ERROR V-288-615 Filesystem (fs1) is already exported by another CIFS share.
