Additional Information
If you modify a NAS share that uses the CIFS/SMB protocol, you must restart the CIFS/SMB service for
the changes to take effect. To restart the CIFS/SMB service, first disjoin the Windows workgroup, then
join it again (see
Windows Domain on the next page
). Restarting the CIFS/SMB service will close all
active connections to the share. Most Windows workstations will automatically reconnect, but some
applications may be affected.
Deleting a NAS Share
Delete a NAS share if it is no longer needed. When you delete a share, all data stored on the share is lost,
and any schedules associated with the share are deleted.
Note:
If you delete a share configured for Directory/File Based Replication on the source DXi, the
share is
not
automatically deleted on the target DXi. If you do not want to retain the share on the target
DXi, you can manually delete it.
To delete a NAS share:
1. Select the share and click
Delete
. You can select multiple shares to delete at once.
2. Click
Yes
to confirm the deletion.
