More information
Creating a CIFS share
You can use System Manager to create a share that enables you to specify a folder, qtree, or volume that CIFS users can access.
Stopping share access
You can use System Manager to stop a share when you want to remove the shared network access to a folder, qtree, or volume.
Creating home directory shares
You can use System Manager to create a home directory share and manage home directory search paths.
Editing share settings
You can use System Manager to modify the settings of a share, such as the symbolic link settings, share access permissions of users or groups, and the type of access to the share. You can also enable or disable continuous availability of a share over Hyper-V, and enable or disable access-based enumeration (ABE).
How ONTAP enables dynamic home directories
ONTAP home directories enable you to configure an SMB share that maps to different directories based on the user that connects to it and a set of variables. Instead of creating separate shares for each user, you can configure one share with a few home directory parameters to define a user's relationship between an entry point (the share) and the home directory (a directory on the SVM).
Shares window
You can use the Shares window to manage your shares and display information about them.
