Hi Kyo,

First of all - welcome to the EMC support forums.

The CIFS share label (Description) can definitely be changed once it is mounted, There are different ways to do it. From NAS Side using Celerra Manager or CLI - you can do it. On Celerra Manager, click on CIFS -> CIFS Share and then right click on the Share to go to the CIFS Share Property Page - where you find the Description (same as Label) - you may change it online.

If you want to change it from the client or Windows side - you must have local administrative right on the CIFS server. You may use Computer Management to connect to the CIFS server and then drill down to the shares and change the property. The same can be done from the Volume property page once mounted as a drive as well - provided you have proper rights.

Hope this helps, please feel free to revert back.

Hi Sandip,

thanks for the quick response and sorry for the delay answering you. Unfortunately the solution you described didn't solve the problem. Looks like my i couldn't explain my problem well enough.
First the results of your hints.
When i go into Celerra Manager --> Cifs --> Cifs Share then right click on the share select properties there is no field with Description or Share label. The only changeable fields are User Limits and Comments.
When i try to do it from Windows Side using Computer Management an connect to the Cifs server its almost the same, there is no field were i can change the desired Value. To get the local administrative right on the Cifs server i put the Domain Administrator into the local administrators group of the Cifs server.
Also after mapping the Share and trying to change it its not possible.

So here is another try to explain my problem :

mounted a Cifs share to Windows by right clicking to My Computer --> Map Network Drive --> \\cifsserver\share
then right click on the mounted Network Drive --> Properties
in the general tab there is a little drive symbol and on the right side of this symbol a field is shown wich in my case shows a 226. This 226 is what i want to change.
On the property Page this field is grayed, so its not changeable. Even though i have the correct rights (i hope, by putting the domain admin into the local administrator group of the Cifs server)
When i do a # nas_volume -list i see the Volume 226 with the name v226 this is exactly the Volume on wich the filesystem and the share is created on. I tried to change the name of specific Volume from v226 to tls but no change in the Properties at all.

Kyo

Hi,

as you already mentioned, this is the volume number the filesystem was created on, and I am not aware of any way to change it.
I am afraid it's not changeable at all.
