NOTICE

This message occurs when the total number of directory watch (Change Notify) requests nears the configured limit. Upon reaching this limit, any further directory watch requests are denied. This typically indicates abnormal client behavior.

Inspect the application using the connection, and also monitor the other applications on the client. The client might be operating incorrectly due to a faulty application running on it. Rebooting the client might also be helpful. In some cases, clients are operating as expected but require a higher threshold, which can be set by using the (privilege: advanced) "cifs option modify -max-watches-set-per-tree" command.

Received %d Change Notify requests, nearing the configured limit of %d, on one tree: clientIP:port %s:%d, directory: "%s" on share: "%s", vserver: "%s".
