- Enable privileged mode by typing the following command:
enable - Enable global mode by typing the following command:
global - Enable the namespace configuration mode using the following command syntax:
namespace [namespace name]
For example:
namespace test - Enable the volume configuration mode using the following command syntax:
volume [volume name]
For example:
volume voltest - To disable the CIFS oplock feature, enter the following command:
cifs oplocks-disable - Exit the channel configuration mode and return to privileged mode by typing the following command:
end
I would be happy to know if I could help.
