Get-NcCifsShare not providing complete list of shares through Powershell.

krishna556 — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 14:07:15 GMT

I am new bee working with Netapp Toolkit through Powershell.

I am having one SVM which is impacted by this, rest of all SVM's within same cluster are working fine.

Tool kit version:

Major Minor Build Revision
----- ----- ----- --------
4 1 0 0

Cluster version: NetApp Release 9.1P10

Issue:

Get-NcCifsshare provides me complete list of CIFS shares on a cluster, If i execute his on my cluster, Some of the shares on one SVM are missing in CLI. I can validate the shares do exist through GUI.

Possible outcome of this is Powershell is trying to copy the CIFS shares from Source, and the files were already exist causing error "duplicate entry "

ERROR: Failed to create CIFS Share DFS_PECAN_COMMON$ on SVM inxxxxxx8

NetApp.Ontapi.ErrnoException+EDUPLICATEENTRY: duplicate entry

at NetApp.Ontapi.NaApi`1.Invoke(INaServer server)

at DataONTAP.C.PowerShell.SDK.Cmdlets.Cifs.AddNcCifsShare.ProcessRecord(NcController controller)

Could you please provide some help in this regard, does Toolkit upgrade can fix this issue.

Hello @krishna556,

I'm not sure what error you're experiencing/needing help with...

Some CIFS shares are not being shown when using the ONTAP CLI (e.g. "cifs share show -vserver NAME"), but are correctly reported in the GUI and when using PowerShell (e.g. "Get-NcCifsShare -Vserver NAME")?
You are unable to create a CIFS share using PowerShell because it already exists?
- How are you creating the CIFS share? What is the PowerShell code you're using? How are you checking to see if the share name already exists?

Hi Asulliva,

Sorry for the confusion am pretty new to Netapp.

From ONTAP CLI and GUI, I am able to validate all the shares and they do exist for vserver SVM123.

From Powershell , I am trying to query the same vserver using Get-NcCifsshare query command.

Some parameters are missing from powershell output

PS D:\working\scripts> Get-NcCifsShare -vserver inx123456 | select *

Volume parameter is not returning any value for some shares, which is highlighted above. Please let me know if you have any questions

Any help would be appreciated.

Deleted the target vservers manually and tryed to run the script fixed the issue.
