It seems that with the modification noted as: #Corrected issue with double quotes breaking share properties in 8.3.1 - 7/6/2015

Some issue are now present

from cdot-cifs-share-backup-restore.

What version of cDOT are you using? These were tested in 8.2.x and 8.3.x.
If you are using a version prior to 8.2.x, you might get unexpected
results. The scripts work fine for me in my environment.

The line it's complaining about is this one:

$mycmd = $mycmd + " -SymlinkProperties ""$mySymlinkProp"""

From my broken Italian, it sounds like it choked on the "-" operator and
that it expected something else. Can you double check the script to ensure
you are using the latest version? Could be an issue in the formatting.

https://github.com/DatacenterDudes/cDOT-CIFS-share-backup-restore/blob/master/restoreSharesAcls.ps1

When you run "help Add-NcCifsShare" from PowerShell, do you get the
SymlinkProperties option listed?

Example:

PS C:> help Add-NcCifsShare

NAME
Add-NcCifsShare

SYNOPSIS
Creates a new CIFS share rooted at the specified path.

SYNTAX
Add-NcCifsShare [-Name] [-Path] [-ShareProperties

[-FileUmask ] [-DirUmask ] [-Comment ]
[-OfflineFilesMode ] [-AttributeCacheTtl
] [-VscanProfile ] [-MaxConnectionsPerShare ]
[-ForceGroupForCreate ]
[-DisablePathValidation] [-VserverContext ] [-Controller
<NcController[]>] [-ZapiRetryCount ]
[]

DESCRIPTION
Creates a new CIFS share rooted at the specified path.

To see the examples, type: "get-help Add-NcCifsShare -examples".

For technical information, type: "get-help Add-NcCifsShare -full".
For online help, type: "get-help Add-NcCifsShare -online"

Maybe right click the script in Windows and open up in the PowerShell
editor to see if you have any syntax issues from when you copied/pasted it?

I've read the older version of the script and I changed back the line 97:

Now it looks

Nevermind. GMail cut the output out. I see it on Github now.

The 2nd error you got was what the change was intended to fix. I'd recommend changing that back.

As for the Symlink issue, do you have the latest version of the ONTAP powershell toolkit module installed? Be sure to use the latest available:

http://community.netapp.com/t5/Microsoft-Cloud-and-Virtualization-Discussions/Data-ONTAP-PowerShell-Toolkit-3-2-1/td-p/100910

from cdot-cifs-share-backup-restore.

Also, be sure there isn't a space between - and SymlinkProperties.

Can you paste the contents of the script you are using?

from cdot-cifs-share-backup-restore.

I'm using Ontap powershell toolkit 3.2.1

Here is the script I have downloaded (before any modification):

Usage:

Run as: .\restoreSharesAcls.ps1 -server <mgmt_ip> -user <mgmt_user> -password <mgmt_user_password> -vserver -shareFile -aclFile -spit <none,less,more depending on info to print>

Example

1. If you want to save create back shares from xml file C:\share.xml and acls from xml file C:\acls.xml on vserver vs2, with less information displayed on the screen

Run as: .\restoreSharesAcls.ps1 -server 10.53.33.59 -user admin -password netapp1! -vserver vs2 -shareFile C:\share.xml -aclFile C:\acl.xml -spit less

2. If you only want to print the commands and not actually create the shares, use -printOnly

Run as: .\restoreSharesAcls.ps1 -server 10.53.33.59 -user admin -password netapp1! -vserver vs2 -shareFile C:\share.xml -aclFile C:\acl.xml -spit less -printOnly true

This has been tested with the latest 8.2.x and 8.3.x cDOT releases.

Param([parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [alias("s")] $server,
[parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [alias("u")] $user,
[parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [alias("p")] $password,
[parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [alias("v")] $vserver,
[parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [alias("sf")] $shareFile,
[parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [alias("af")] $aclFile,
[parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [alias("sp")] [Validateset("none","less","more")]$spit,
[alias("po")] [Validateset("false","true")] $printOnly = "false")

I've checked for any sintax error, but I may have missed something...

from cdot-cifs-share-backup-restore.

Add a double quote to your script here:

$mycmd = $mycmd + " -ShareProperties $myShareProp"

Then try it again.

from cdot-cifs-share-backup-restore.

Note that's a trailing " at the end. There wasn't one there before.

I'll make a change to the existing script.

from cdot-cifs-share-backup-restore.

It works like a charm!!!!

Thank you so mutch for the wonderfull work!! If you are ever near Milan (or at netapp insight emea) get in touch for a drink!!

I will be in Berlin this year for sure. Doing two sessions. :)

Come find me!

Hi justin,

I've jsut put to work your script but I have an issue with the power shell,
I've restoring a very big environment, with a lot of shares and ACL.

During the configuration of the shares I receive some errors, linked to an
issue with the Key Sensitive configuration of the shares with CDOT. We have
fixed it by manually creating the missing shares.

But the real issue is with the ACL. After a lot of ACL configuration the
power shell begin to send out this errrors:

Add-NcCifsShareAcl -VserverContext ITMIJESV103 -Share
"WS_ROAMING_PROFILES$" -UserGroupType "windows" -UserOrGroup "BUI

LTIN\Administrators" -Permission "full_control"

ryone" -Permission "change"

My best guess is that after a LOT of commands the power shell has some
issues... Has this happened to anyone else? Is there a way to resolve the
issue?

Thanks for the support!!

Does it work if you run Add-NcCifsShareAcl manually in PowerShell for one
of the shares?

I don't think the size of the environment would be an issue here.

The error looks like it's choking on a missing dll. But I have no idea what
that dll is. Google doesn't find anything called chnzhkaq.dll and it's not
on my server running Win2k12. The folder it's looking in is a user named
silvestrir. Is that you? Is that the user that's logged in?

Did you try a different server?

DLL issues usually are client issues. If we knew what that dll was from, we
could figure out why it's broken. But I have no idea what that one is. This
is unlikely an issue with the script itself.
