Hi everyone, wondering if anyone can shed some light on my issue.
Scenario, have a fileserver which was recently upgraded (in-place) to Windows 2012. It's primary role is just to keep a backup of certain department's "end of month" data. To this end, we enabled the data-deduplication function on one of it's drives.
Problem is as follows, shares located on that particular deduplicated drive are not accessible over the network. First noticed when a particular department (who has a mapped drive to a folder on that drive) could not access it.
Long story short, here's the scenario.
Created a share on the C: Drive, with full access to my security group (share & permissions) - Can access it no problems.
Created a share on the D: Drive, with full access to my security group (share & permissions) - Cannot access it at all.
All pre-existing shares on the D: drive (the deduplicated one) are also not accessible over the network, from XP / W7 / W2012 machines.
Fire wall is off...thoughts?
