CIFS Share Export type ABE & BranchCache Both

Hi All,

I am having VNX2 series Storage Arrays and latest version 8 DART on my Data Movers.

I created VDMs and mounted my filesystem on them.

I have exported these filesystems as CIFS share with type ABE.

Now, I have a requirement to enable BranchCache on these exports. After reading through CIFS Guide and BranchCache v2 for VNX I followed all the steps and exported my CIFS share with type HASH.

My question is:

1) Will my exports get impacted due to now type get changed from ABE to HASH?

2) Can I export my CIFS shares with both types i.e. ABE & HASH?

I dont found any document or reference where I can understand whether these both types of export features get override to each other where in my export output only one is showing as below:

Before:

=====

[nasadmin@VNX01-CS0 ~]$ server_export vnx01-cifsA

vnx01-cifsA :

share "TMP01" "/TMP01" umask=022 maxusr=4294967295 type=ABE netbios=vnx01-cifsA comment="CIFS Share for TMP01"

After:

=====

[nasadmin@VNX01-CS0 ~]$ server_export vnx01-cifsA

vnx01-cifsA :

share "TMP01" "/TMP01" umask=022 maxusr=4294967295 type=HASH netbios=vnx01-cifsA comment="CIFS Share for TMP01"
