Creating and Managing an SMB Share in Qumulo Core

This section explains how to create, modify, and delete an SMB share by using the Qumulo Core Web UI.

Log in to the Qumulo Core Web UI.
Click Sharing > SMB Shares.
On the right side of the SMB Shares page, click Create Share.
On the Create SMB Share page:
1. Enter the File system path from the root of your file system.
2. To create a new directory, click Create new directory if it doesn’t exist.
3. Enter the Share name (for example, \\203.0.113.0\my-share).
4. Enter the Description for the share.
5. To display only the files and directories to which the user has read access, click Enable access-based enumeration.
6. To force users to connect over SMB3 (and higher) by using encryption-enabled clients, click Require encryption.
7. Under Share Permissions, enter trustees and specify their:
  - Permission type: Click Add allow or Add deny.
    
    Note
    To ensure that Qumulo Core processes users to whom it explicitly denies access before processing users to whom it grants access, Deny entries appear at the top of the list and Allow entries at the bottom.
  - Permissions: Click Read, Write, or Change Permissions.
  To delete a trustee, click .
8. Under Advanced Options:
  1. Enter the Default file create mode (0644 by default).
