Step 2
Click Run to erase the contents of the cache.
Running the File Server Rename Utility
The File Server Rename tab enables you to change the resource location for all resources of a given file
server name on the WAAS device. This function changes the file server name for the files in the CIFS
cache.
To run the file server rename utility, follow these steps:
Step 1 If the CifsAO component is running, stop it as described in the “Starting and Stopping Components”
section on page 1-5.
Step 2 In the Utilities window, click the File Server Rename tab.
Step 3 In the Current File Server name field, enter the current name.
Step 4 In the New File Server name field, enter the new name and click Run for the new name to take effect.
Note Do not specify the name of another existing cached file server in the New File Server name field.
If you do specify an existing name as the new name, the cached contents of this file server are
overwritten with the cached contents of the file server you are renaming.
Managing a CIFS Accelerator Device
The CifsAO option in the navigation area allows you to monitor preposition tasks, view CIFS device
statistics, and view the log. The CifsAO option appears only if you are using transparent CIFS
accelerator mode.
The CifsAO option includes the following menu items:
• Preposition—Allows you to monitor the progress of preposition policies created in the WAAS
Central Manager GUI. In addition, you can optionally terminate preposition tasks. For more
information, see the “Preposition Option” section on page 1-20.
