CIFS shares not accessible after VDI GPO push
Applies to
- ONTAP
- Windows 11-based VDIs running Windows 11 23H2 (Multisession capable)
- CIFS
Issue
- Users are not able to access the netapp storage (CIFS Shares) after DCs were patched with MS patch for CVE-2025-49716.
- After the issue occurred, patches to DCs were backed out, but problem persisted.
- The packet traces shows that the clients were doing a Tree Connect using SMB2 signatures to connect to a share but when the client attempted to do a Create to open the root of the share, it was not using SMB2 signatures.
