3.6 Upgrade loses network shares. 4/24/2008 10:12:34 AM

Upgraded the Cluster to version 3.6 from 3.4, and we lost all network shares on a volume.

These were not shares through the "Polyserve file sharing" components, but standard NT / Windows shares on a Polyserve volume.  [ We do not have the file sharing components, only the database ].

Since there were only 3 shares it was not worth creating a ticket, as investigating root cause on this one-time event (the upgrade) is too much effort.  We just recreated the UNC shares.

I did send a note to the Polyserve HP Support, so they could forward to the engineering team.

Note:  These shares were lost before the upgrade of the dynamic volumes from 3.4 to 3.6, as obviously when you destroy a 3.4 volume and rebuild it as 3.6 you will loose UNC (non polyserve shares).
