Hi All,

I need o shrink a NFS volume with cifs shares added on it. And also NIS is enabled on the filer.

Please let me know shrinking this volume will have any effect on any environment..

Growing and shrinking are dynamic with volumes. You just can't resize below what is used.

HI Scott,

Thanks for your reply..

The above volume is flexible volume and of 1 TB size with 500 GB utilized data. We are shrinking with 200 GB on that.

This is the situation here.

Shrinking to 800gb can be done dynamically with a resize
