Thanks for the information. &nbsp;One thing I noticed, however, when I created the shares on the mirrored sets, it looked like from a security prospective, I would be able to modify the files under that share. &nbsp;I know that the mirrored sets are read only so is it safe to assume I still would not be able to modify those files regardless.<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

This question is asked from someone who is VERY new to NetApp.<br />
<br />
I have a NetApp filer with several volumes for my CIFS shares. &nbsp;The volumes have been configured with mirrored sets to a second NetApp filer. &nbsp;I have also defined all of my CIFS shares on the primary.....so all is good.<br />
<br />
My question....do I also need to setup the shares on the mirrored NetApp. &nbsp;I know these volumes are read only, but not being familiar with the process of reverting to the mirred sets, I dont know if the shares have to be pre-configured.<br />
<br />
Thanks

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
