CIFS opened files

inge_sys — Tue, 10 Nov 2015 16:57:01 GMT

Hi Netappiens,

I would like to know if there's a way to find out how many files are opened in CIFS on my filer (FAS6240 Ontap 8.2 7-mode). I tried lock status -p cifs -n but it only gives me the number of opened shares. I looked in the stats objects and didn't find what I wanted.

Anyone had the same issue ?

Thanks.

Hi,

Did you try "cifs sessions *" ?

Thanks

There are several ways to do this..

depending on how many you have, you can use the MMC to mount the vfiler/filer and export to csv and add or you can use oncommand, or powershell.

You would need to know how to use netapp powershell - get-nacifssessions and then sum filers...

Hi Everyone and thanks for your answers, but, maybe my question wasn't clear enough, I want the number of opened files, not the number of sessions ... So I don't get the point of counting the "cifs sessions *"

Thanks guys.

Try with

cifs sessions * (you can see the active sessions and the open files)

I know your question is a bit old but check this out:

Give "cifs sessions" an invalid argument (the dash in the above example) and it prints the usage.

Try them all. In particular, I think the "-t" might give you what you are looking for. The "-c" also works ok.

Cheers, Renton.
