Creating NEW folder under CIFS

[Ryan]

Hi, m new to FreeNAS. I would like to check on the following -

Currently i hv two shares in CIFS_shares --- incoming & releases.

I would like to create a new share named Test under CIFS_Shares but when i create, i am unable to view it from windows explorer. Path is
/mnt/volume01/cifs_share/Test
Dont understand why is it so?

Please assist

create it from your client?

Nope from FreeNAS GUI server

How are you creating it from the GUI? Are you making a new dataset?

If all you want is a simple folder, you can just create it from your client

some info about your configuration would be beneficial.

No it seems like i cant make any new dataset - no available space to create. i want to grant different user access to different folder in the CIFS share.
Current CIFS share, inside 'incoming' folder, i have about 10 folders. I need to grant different group of users to access different folder.
Test /mnt/volume01/cifs_share/Test

Delete​

incoming /mnt/volume01/cifs_share/incoming

releases /mnt/volume01/cifs_share/releases

No space to create datasets?

Again. What is your configuration?

If you have no space for dataset then you don't have any free space at all.

When i create new dataset, it shows me

• cannot create 'volume01/test': out of space

My volume config
volume01 /mnt/volume01 84.1 GiB (45%) 99.5 GiB 183.6 GiB
