    Maybe you could start by giving us some information.

    What have you tried to fix it?
    What actual error messages are you getting?
    What mount command or /etc/filesystems entry are you using?

    i.e. do some problem diagnosis first, then ask here with more information.

    Hi Tony,

    Answer to your question series vice

    1)We want to mount CIFS shares after AIX upgrade same shares are mountable before upgrade
    2) Make sure the lsdev command shows that device nsmb0 is in
    the Available state. Also make sure that the share name,
    user name and password are accurate.
    3)mount -v cifs -n IP/kyqabs/Central123 -o wrkgrp=cdc_nt,fmode=770,uid=205,gid=203 /windows_share$ /AIX_mount_directory

    We are unable to mount windows share on AIX 5.3 TL12. When we trying to mount the share we get the following error

    "Make sure the lsdev command shows that device nsmb0 is in
    the Available state. Also make sure that the share name,
    user name and password are accurate."

    However, same share was mounted on AIX 5.3 TL08

    We had a similar experience upgrading from AIX 5.3 TL9 to TL12; however, in our case, the "mount all" command fixed the problem.
