Folder and Share Management
94 NAS 1000s Administration Guide
â– NFS service does not support spaces in the names for NFS file shares.
NFS translates any spaces in an export into an underscore character. Additional
translations can be set up for files. See the "OEM Supplemental Help" chapter of the SFU
help, found on the NAS 1000s. This feature is designed to ensure the greatest level of
compatibility with NFS clients, because some do not work with NFS exports that contain a
space in the export name.
If you plan to use the same name when sharing a folder through CIFS, and then exporting
it through NFS, do not put spaces in the CIFS share name.
â– NFS service does not support exporting a child folder when its parent folder has
already been exported.
An NFS client can access a child folder by selecting the parent folder and then navigating
to the child folder. If strict cross-platform compatibility is an administration goal, CIFS
must be managed in the same way. Do not share a folder through CIFS if the parent folder
is already shared.
Managing Shares
Shares can be managed through the Shares menu option of the WebUI. Tasks include:
â– Creating a new share
â– Deleting a share
â– Modifying share properties
Each of these tasks is discussed in this section.
