You can also view this information from the command line. To see the

assignments for a filesystem, use this command:

mx fs queryassignments

<ALL_SERVERS |

server

...>

To see the assignments on specific servers, use this command:

mx fs getdriveletter --server

<ALL_SERVERS |

server

...>

Remove Drive Letter or Path Assignments

If you no longer want to associate a filesystem with a particular drive

letter or mount path, you can remove the assignment. Before doing this,

be sure that applications are not currently accessing the filesystem via the

drive letter or mount path.

To remove a drive letter or path assignment, select the filesystem on the

Filesystems tab, right-click, and then select Unassign Paths. A warning

such as the following will be displayed.

After the drive letter or path has been unassigned, you will not be able to

access the filesystem until you assign a new drive letter or path to it.

To remove assignments from the command line, use this command:

mx fs unassign <filesystem> <ALL_SERVERS | server ...>

actual root directory of the PSFS volume is not directly accessible when

managing filesystem security. By default, Windows Explorer displays the

mount point folder, not the root directory of the PSFS volume, and the
