Consider the following before you modify file share service groups using the wizard:

• If the file share service group is online, you must run the wizard from a node on which the service group is online. You can then use the wizard to add resources to and remove them from the configuration. You cannot change attributes of resources that are online.

• To change the resource attributes, you must take the service group offline. However, the MountV and VMDg (in case of SFW HA), Mount and DiskRes (in case of Windows LDM), and NetAppSnapDrive and NetAppFiler (in case of VCS for Windows) resources for the service group should be online on the node where you run the wizard and offline on all other nodes.

• If you are running the wizard to remove a node from the service group's system list, do not run the wizard on the node being removed.

• If the service group contains resources that were not part of the default service group configuration, then modifying the service group may change those resources. You may then have to manually restore the settings of those resources later.

• After configuring a file share if you move the shared directory to a new location, then while reconfiguring the file share service group, the wizard fails to delete the storage resources configured for the existing file share.

  The wizard successfully creates a new file share resource and the corresponding storage resources, but fails to remove the older storage resources from the service group.

  In such cases, you can either remove the stale storage resources manually, or delete the file share service group and run the wizard again to recreate the service group.
