Title
To collect home drives that are hidden shares using the File Storage Analysis, does the hidden shares option also need to be enabled? -
Description
Home Directories are configured with names such as User$, which is a hidden share. Can the discovery be configured with the Home Drives option only or is the Hidden Shares option also required? -
Resolution
Both the Home Directories and Hidden Shares need to be enabled if the home drives being collected are also hidden shares. This will also cause other hidden shares to be collected, such as C$. Enhancement ID VSTS16279 has been submitted to the Product Team to investigating collecting home drives if they are hidden shares, without having to select the hidden shares. -
