The Add a CIFS Share dialog box allows you to share the entire filesystem or a specific subdirectory.
Enter a name and description for the share, select the appropriate permissions, and select the
servers on which the share will be created. Note the following:
• Do not include any of the following special characters in a share name. If the name contains
any of these special characters, the share might not be set up properly on all nodes in the
cluster.
' & ( [ { $ ` , / \
• Do not include any of the following special characters in the share description. If a description
contains any of these special characters, the description might not propagate correctly to all
nodes in the cluster.
* % + & `
The Access Based Enumeration option allows users to see only the files and folders to which they
have access on the file share. Select this option if appropriate for the share.
To add shares from the CLI, use the following command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_cifs -a -f FSNAME –s SHARENAME –p SHAREPATH
[-S SETTINGLIST] [-h HOSTLIST]
