I'm working on the same thing. I've got a script that does it, however it takes 3 text files per share to do it. You also need a master "shares.txt' file that is nothing but a list of the shares you are trying to create.
First thing is to create a text file with the share names. Then you create 3 text files for each sheare. One that has a list of users that need full control, one for Change, and one for Read only. These lists of users need to be in the following format;
Domain\username or Domain\groupname.
Best thing is to have all of the text files together, but is not a requirement.
Here is the script.
$servershares = (Get-Content c:\scripts\TEST\shares.txt)
$vp = '/vol/Volumename/directory_or_qtreename' (The Volume path on the Netapp)
#This creates the directory and sets the permissions to Everyone full control
foreach ($share in $servershares) {
New-NaDirectory -path $VP/$share -Permission 777
#This creates the Share on that NEW directory. It also sets the permissions to everyone Full control.
Add-NaCifsShare $share -path $VP/$share -Comment 'Powershell test'
#This re-sets the permissions on the Share (not NTFS permissions) to specified groupsor users based on the text files.
$ShareF = (get-content c:\scripts\TEST\"$share"F.txt)
Foreach ($fcu in $ShareF) {
Set-NaCifsShareAcl $share $fcu "Full Control"
}
$ShareC = (get-content c:\scripts\TEST\"$share"C.txt)
Foreach ($ccu in $ShareC) {
Set-NaCifsShareAcl $share $ccu "Change"
}
$ShareR = (get-content c:\scripts\TEST\"$share"R.txt)
Foreach ($rcu in $ShareR) {
Set-NaCifsShareAcl $share $rcu "Read"
}
}
I know it's a bit clunky and it requires a lot of prepwork in getting the txt files set-up. I also need to figure out a way to get it to work on sub-directories, but it is a start.
