How to close/terminate a CIFS session on an SVM?

[AhmedAl-Batoosh]

Hi everyone,

I’m working on a storage virtual machine (SVM) with CIFS enabled and I need to close or terminate an active CIFS session.

I’m looking for guidance on:

• give local user or AD user to do this activity so  you help to do this

• what privilege i can give (can i give him Read only )

If anyone can share the steps or commands, or point me to relevant documentation, I’d really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance for your help!

You can use the command line in ONTAP. This would require setting up role based access control. (RBAC)

you can also use windows computer management. Open it. Right click on the computer and connect to the the SVM. Go through the items untl you find shares and sessions. 

for that to with the user must be in the SVM builtin\Administrators group. 

i don’t have the time right now on how to setup RBAC. It is impossible to this ask read only as the the act of terminating a session is by definition destructive
