Page 74: Cifs share does not exist

It could be that the application which opened the file did
not shut down gracefully. It is recommended to reboot the
client if possible.
CIFS Guest Account Invalid
Description
CIFS service cannot start.
Cause
A valid CIFS guest account is required for CIFS
functionality.
Workaround
Configure the system guest account with a valid account.
CIFS Locking Inconsistency
Description
CIFS service is interrupted due to CIFS interlocking issues.
Cause
CIFS client interlocking scenarios.
Workaround
System recovers itself automatically, issuing the above
event when recovered.
CIFS Maximum Connections Reached
Description
Maximum number of CIFS connections per NAS controller
has been reached.
Cause
Each NX3600 appliance is limited to 200 concurrent CIFS
connections and each NX3610 and FS8600 is limited to
1500 connections.
•
The system is in an optimal state and the number
of CIFS clients accessing one of the controllers
reaches the maximum. In such a scenario,
consider adding another NAS appliance.
•
The system is in optimal state but the clients are
significantly unbalanced between NAS
controllers. In this case rebalance the clients
using the NAS Manager.
•
The system is in degraded state (one or more NAS
controllers are down) and the CIFS clients are left
over on the remaining controller. In this case wait
until the system returns to optimal or decrease the
number of CIFS clients using the system.
Workaround
If all NAS controllers are in optimal mode, the connections
are divided between both of them.
CIFS Share Does Not Exist
Description
Client attempts to connect to an inexistent share.
Cause
•
Spelling mistake on client side.
•
Accessing the wrong server.
