Robocopy writes files to snapshot directory instead of CIFS share gets "Access Denied"
Applies to
- 7-Mode
- Data Ontap 8.X
- Ontap 9.X
Issue
1) When using ROBOCOPY to copy/move data from a CIFS server there are errors related to "EXTRA" files or folder
*EXTRA Dir -1 M:~snapshothourly.0datadir1
*EXTRA File 31313 file1.dat
*EXTRA Dir -1 M:~snapshothourly.0datadir2
2) Robocopy attempts to act on files in the
~snapshot directory
and receives an "Access denied
" error.
