Ok, sorry that I pull up this old topic. But yesterday I have observed on our osol cifs server, that also for normal shares this problem occurs. What it is here: * Setup a box in ad mode (ldap + kerberos, ad based uids/gids) * Join with smbadm * ... * autosnapping and all that * then add another bunch of disk space to have a dedicated data pool * zpool... crate... * mount it on /export/data * create a dataset "Sekretariat" => data/Sekretariat 8,12G 232G 6,77G /export/data/Sekretariat Now create 2 subdirs /export/data/Sekretariat/Sekretariat-A and /export/data/Sekretariat/Sekretariat-B * set acls correctly (Domain\ Admins and Sekretariat group should have access) * use sharemgr to create a share group sekretariat publishing to the servers ad space * add both directories as individual shares * ensure snappshots are created and all is fine
Now have a look to previous versions tab from a win7 client, here it always stays empty on everything in the share. Some month ago there was only one share pointing to /export/data/Sekretariat (the root of the dataset), previous versions were working fine. Due to my boss wants to have this separated I altered the share structure, with the result that now the users can't retrieve previous versions of their files as this tab now stays completely empty.
