HP CIFS Server Release Notes Version A.03.01.03 (5900-1997, October 2011)

Workaround
Use the -m option with useradd when adding a POSIX machine account. If the home directory
does not exist for the new account, it is created.
Issue
The delete operation on a large number of files from a directory takes a long time to complete.
Workaround
Close Windows Explorer after the delete process is started. Beginning with A.02.03.01, another
workaround is to set the change notify timeout smb.conf parameter to 0. When set to 0,
change notification messages are not sent and long delays do not occur. Clients must initiate
updates to view changes (by pressing F5) that might have occurred on the file share. Beginning
with A.02.03.01, the change notify timeout parameter moves from a global to share level
parameter. The change notify timeout parameter is not available starting from A.02.04.
