Slow access to mapped Sharepoint drive

Hi there.
One of our clients is running SBS 2008 with Sharepoint installed as per default settings. Everything appears to work normally on a day to day basis.
In order to manipulate files they have a number of mapped drives which lead to particular documents libraries. This allows them to for example, attach a document to an email (which you can't do through the normal SharePoint web interface. Likewise they save
accounts documents (from Sage) straight to these folders.
The issue is that from time to time these mapped drives respond very slowly ie normal access to the map drive would be a second or two and then for a period of a day or so drive access may reduce to 10 or 20 seconds. This will continue for a day or so and
then go away. What is also strange is that this slowness doesnt effect all users at the same time ie one user may get normal access while another grinds to a halt. It doesnt appear to be a network issue as other network services appear to work fine during
these slow downs ie acess to a normal mapped folder on the server.
I cant see anything obviously wrong (error logs etc) but im not really sure where to go with this one.

  • Windows explorer keeps computing items after accessing a mapped network drive

    Our organization has decided to upgrade to windows 7 but we are running into a problem with windows explorer green progress bar hanging after accessing a mapped network drive. When you try to go back to computer or access the control panel after going
    3 or more folders deep into the mapped drive, windows explorer just keeps searching.
    When you expand the arrow in the address bar it states that it is computing items and never stops.
    The only way around this is to right click on libraries and select reset back to defaults and everything is back to normal.
    We are deploying this image of windows 7 to over a 1000 computers and we cannot have this problem lingering, does anyone have a solution to resolve this issue. This does not happen in Windows XP.
    We have tried to turn off windows search and remote differential compression and this does work but the problem is that you lose all search capabilities in windows. So windows search needs to be enabled. We also tried to adjust the MTU, change GP settings,
    and nothing seems to work except to turn windows search off or reset libraries back to default.
    We also did some research online and there are so many people experiencing the same problem, with no resolution expect they have to go back to Windows XP. That is not an option for us.
    Please help us we would really greatly appreciate it.

    Hi,
    The issue could be related to searching and indexing feature in Windows 7. I suggest rebuilding the indexing files.
    Click Start -> Type
    indexing options in the search box -> Advanced -> Index Settings tab-> Rebuild buttion.
    For more information, you can refer to:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Change-advanced-indexing-options
    If the issue persists, you can perform the following troubleshooting steps.
    1. Go to update your network adapter drivers and BIOS from manufacture's site manually.
    2. If any router is involved, please update the firmware.
    3. Perform a System File Checker.

  • Location is not available to mapped network drive in Windows 8 using Synology NAS

    Original Thread:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-files/location-is-not-available-to-mapped-network-drive/ca7eac5c-0e3d-494b-b488-e245978e4db9
    I have recently upgraded to Windows 8.1 standard edition. I have come across a problem when using the option for mapped network drives. Under Windows 7 I would normally map a network drive (Synology NAS) and I could access all files, copy and paste, install
    apps, and link media, all from within the mapped network drive. However, under Windows 8.1 I have come across a couple of problems.
    1. When I try to copy a file from my "Mapped Network Drive" to the C:\Drive (OS Boot Drive), I get the following error,
    "E:\ is unavailable. If the location is on this PC, make sure the device or drive is connected or the disc is inserted, and then try again. if the location is on a network, make sure you're connected to the network or internet, and then try again. If the
    location still can't be found, it might have been moved or deleted."
    However, if I copy a file from the "NETWORK/Network Location" the file copies just fine with no problems. And, If I also copy a file from a "Added Network Location" the file also copies just fine with no problems. And, if I copy a file from
    my "Mapped Network Drive" to my D:\Drive (non OS Drive), the file copies just fine with no problems.
    2. When I try to install apps from my "Mapped Network Drive" they will sometimes install and sometimes not (I am also choosing the option to run the programs as Administrator). Again if I try to install using either the "NETWORK/Network Location"
    or an "Added Network Location" the apps install just fine with no problems.
    3. When I link media (music or videos) from my "Mapped Network Drive" they will work but once I reboot they no longer work as if they have lost the file path or link of the original source location.
    4. When I use FireFox (browser) and I set my default download dir to my "Mapped Network Drive" it will work once originally set it but after I reboot, it no longer works. However, again if I set the default download dir to either the "NETWORK/Network
    Location" or an "Added Network Location" the default download dir works fine even after reboot.
    While I am able to access my network drive using any of the three options, "Mapped Network Drive", "NETWORK/Network Location", and "Added Network Location" but only "NETWORK/Network Location", and "Added Network
    Location"appear to be reliable. Tbh I would prefer to be able to use my "Mapped Network Drive" in Windows 8 as I have been able to under Windows 7.
    More info:
    I currently have UAC set to "Never Notify".
    I also have Windows 8.1 installed on three different systems and all of them give me the same exact problems. One of the systems is a completely clean install with no 3rd party apps installed.
    Just so its clear I am able to access the "Mapped Network Drive" but unfortunately this method of access appears to be unreliable in Windows 8 but in Windows 7 it works flawlessly.
    If I map a network drive from another pc running windows 7 or 8, I can access and use the mapped drive with no problems. This problem appears to be related to the Synology NAS devices and I have researched the Synology forums but only found one thread about
    the problem, here:
    http://forum.synology.com/enu/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=76687
    I have searched several forums and attempted to pick the brains of my local computer shops for any incite on this problem but I have been unable to find a solution/fix.
    Any help resolving this is greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Based on your description, we can temporarily disable the firewall to see whether the issue persists.
    For this issue seems related to the Synology NAS devices, in order to get professional help regarding the product, we can contact the vendor support to see whether the issue
    can be fixed.

  • Map a drive to the Remote Web Access - Shared Folders

    All companies love Remote Web Access. No need for VPN for access to remote desktop and the "private skydrive" Shared Folders.
    Is there anyway to map a drive to these "private skydrive" Shared Folders? you can map a drive to the real skydrive and to Sharepoint so surely it is possible?

    The trick that I found was to upgrade my file server to server 2012 R2 and configure iSCSI Target for the resource I wanted to access by RWA. On my RWA Server I then used the iSCSI initiator to connect to that Target. This makes the shared drive appear
    as if it is a native drive on the RWA server. Once this was done I configured that drive, or a folder within that drive for access with RWA. It has worked perfectly ever since.
    Trust but verify!

  • How can we access a file that is on a mapped network drive.

    If I have a network drive that is password protected and is already mapped on a server(x.x.x.x) as R drive. And I have file called temp.txt on R:\Temp folder on the mapped network drive.
    How can I access it using file: using a client application running on that server.
    Thanks.

    From the above I can say that I need to specify the username and password.
    Now my question is how do I specify the username and password in the URI?
    Thanks for the help.You don't. It is required that the user account running the code already has permissions to the directory in the first place.

  • Mapped network drive appears empty for all users on one computer

    We have several network drives mapped via a batch file at log in.  On one particular Windows 7 computer one of these drives maps but appears empty.  Manually mapping to the drive and assigning a different drive letter makes no difference but manually
    mapping by entering the IP address allows viewing and accessing the contents.  
    The malfunctioning network drive is also using Hosted BranchCache.  The following settings are set in local group policy:
    (\Network\BranchCache)
    Turn on BrancheCache - Enabled
    Set BranchCache Hosted Cache Mode - Enabled - <servername>
    Configure BranchCache for network files - Enabled - 0
    The servers involved are running Windows Server 2012.
    I am at a loss here and will appreciate any suggestions. 
    ~JuniorG33k "Why is this thus? What is the reason for this thusness?"

    With Offline Files disabled the contents of the mapped drive are visible and accessible.  Unfortunately, Offline Files must be enabled for BranchCache to work.  
    Looking in the Event Viewer at “Applications and Services Logs\Microsoft\Windows\OfflineFiles\Operational” I can see that the mapped network drive transitioned to slow link during high latency but has never transitioned back.

  • Slow access when opening XLS or DOC files over the network but XLSX and DOCX files are fast

    I am working with a small office that has 3 Windows 7 Pro PC's.  Two of these PC's have shared folders that hold Word and Excel files and all 3 of the PC's have drives mapped to these shared folders.  When browsing these mapped drive in Windows
    Explorer  and double-clicking a file 1 of the computers takes about 30-50 seconds to open any file with a .doc or .xls extension.  It opens .docx and .xlsx files in a couple seconds though, it also open PDF files very quickly.  The other 2 PC's
    have no trouble any any type of file.  I have tried many things over the last couple weeks to get this fixed.  I have added the file locations as 'trusted locations' in the Trust Center and added a couple Registry tweaks to the SMB/ lanman workstation
    and server. 2 PC's are running Office Pro 2010 SP2 and the other is Office Pro 2013, the one having the slow access is running Office 2010.  Has anyone come across this problem and have any advice??

    Try: 
    Open My Computer.
    Open the Tools menu and choose Folder Options...
    Select the File Types tab.
    Select the extension (for example DOC, or XLS) of the file that is slow to open.
    In the Details section, click [Advanced], and another dialog box will open. 
    In the Actions section, click Open then click [Edit...], and another dialog box will open.

  • Map SharePoint Libraries in intranet not on Internet. Is it possible in SharePoint 2013?

    Hello,
    I have live site and map SharePoint library with local drive. That feature I want to enable in intranet or not enable for intranet.
    Can you suggest how can we define the scope for Map SharePoint Libraries? Is it possible in SharePoint 2013?

    Link - http://www.trustsharepoint.com/2013/08/disabling-windows-explorer-view-in.html
    Method #1
    Administrators can disable access to the Windows Explorer view by modifying the “User Permissions” on the web application. This is done within Central Administration
    Method #2
    I have found that simply removing the “Open in Explorer” button all together from the SharePoint ribbon can
    be an effective way to prevent access through the Explorer view. There is a good blog post here on how to accomplish this here.
    Method #3
    A third method that is effective and allows you to still maintain client object model access and access through
    the Microsoft Office open dialog is the following procedure which modifies the permissions required to access the Open in Explorer button. This procedure will result in the “Open in Explorer” button in the SharePoint web interface to still be visible and enabled,
    but to only be accessible by users that have the “ManageWeb” permission on the site.
    Method #4
    A 4th and probably more extreme method is to in fact disable WebDAV itself on the IIS Web Server.

  • Using a mapped network drive

    I have mapped a network drive (q:) to a library in (hosted) SharePoint 2013. I have full permissions.
    I pasted a pdf file into the local q: drive but it doesn't appear in the library in SharePoint.
    I know there are alternative ways of doing this (different ways to map a drive - where a drive letter is not assigned) or using SkyDrive, but ultimately I want to use a program that requires to access data in Access tables using a path that includes a drive
    letter.
    Can anyone explain why it seems that changes written to the local mapped drive are not being updated in the library that it is mapped to.
    Thanks.

    HI,
    Do you have any columns that require metadata values?
    This works for libraries without required medatada
    example:
    Net Use Z: Delete
    Net Use Z: http://MyWebApp/Documents
    robocopy C:\MyFolder Z: /COPY:DAT /Z /XA:H /XO /NP /W:5 /LOG+:C:\logs\SPDaily.log
    The example copies files from C to 
    http://MyWEebApp/Documents
    But if I run the script as another user and there are required metadata values then the file will be copied and the file will not have a checked in version. you can go to the library setting and click on
    Manage files which have no checked in version

  • Help with Slow access or NAT to Inside Interface on ASA 9.1

    I am hoping someone can help me figure this out, I did this on the PIX and it worked like a charm, but I am having some difficulty translating the configuration to an ASA.
    In the PIX I performed NAT on outside traffic to a specific inside host (web server) to map to the inside interface so that return traffic would go to the same firewall the traffic came in through, The reason for this configuration was because the gateway of last resort was a different firewall and not the firewall the traffic came in through.
    Now to further give you some history, the gateway of last resort is an ASA running 9.1 (Now), prior to that it was a PIX with v8.0(4), traffic to the aforementioned web server came in through the gateway of last resort), which at the time was the PIX.
    However, for some reason after swapping the PIX for an ASA (same rules, updated NAT rules for 9.1) access to the same web server is slow. Not sure why, but it’s the case. To alleviate the slowness we experienced, and until I can figure out why this occurs on the ASA, I placed a PIX on the network that only listens for traffic for the web server in question. On this PIX I map to the inside interface so that traffic flow works and external clients can access the web server with no issues.
    So two questions, one I would like to use the configuration I have for the web server on the PIX on the ASA to see if that setup on the ASA works better, but having difficulty translating the rules to the ASA.
    Second question, has anyone experienced this type of issue (Slow access with ASA to a web server, but fast with PIX to the same web server)?
    Attached a diagram of what I am currently doing?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.
    P.S. Addresses in attached picture config are not real, but I know what they translate to.

    Hi,
    To me you it would seem that you are looking for a NAT configurations something like this
    object network SERVER-PUBLIC
    host 197.162.127.6
    object network SERVER-LOCAL
    host 10.0.1.25
    nat (outside,inside) source dynamic any interface destination static SERVER-PUBLIC SERVER-LOCAL
    It will do a NAT for both the source and destination address in a single NAT configurations. It defines that a Dynamic PAT to the "inside" interface will be done for "any" traffic entering from the "outside" WHEN the destination is the SERVER-PUBLIC IP address. Naturally the SERVER-PUBLIC will untranslated to the SERVER-LOCAL in the process as this configuration handles 2 translations.
    I dont know if this changes the situation at all but it should be the configuration format to handle the translation of external host to the internal interface IP address and only apply when this single public IP address is conserned.
    Hope this helps

  • How do I access my airport extreme drives online

    how do I access my airport extreme drives over the internet?

    Here are the basic steps to share an AirPort Disk over the Internet.
    Start the AirPort Utility > Select the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn,) and then, note the IP address shown.
    Select Manual Setup.
    Verify that Connection Sharing = Share a public IP address is selected on the Internet > Internet Connection tab.
    Select Disks, and then, select File Sharing.
    Verify that both the "Enable file sharing" and "Share disks over WAN" options are enabled.
    Verify that Secure Shared Disks = With a disk password. (Recommended)
    Verify that AirPort Disks Guest Access = Not allowed. (Recommended)
    Select Advanced, and then, select the Port Mapping tab.
    Click the plus sign to add a new port mapping.
    For Service, select the "Personal File Sharing" option. (Note: This option would only allow Mac clients to access the AirPort Disks. If you want both Macs and PCs to connect, you would need to leave this field at its default value and enter the appropriate SMB ports to the mix of ports to be opened.)
    In the Public UDP Port(s) and Public TCP Port(s) boxes, type in a 4-digit port number (e.g., 8888) that you choose. In the Private IP Address box, type the internal IP address of your AEBSn that you wrote down in step 1. In the Private UDP Port(s) and Private TCP Port(s) boxes, type 548. Click Continue.
    In the Description box, type a descriptive name like "AirPort Disk File Sharing," and then, click Done.
    Click on Update.
    To connect to the shared AirPort Disk from a remote location using a Mac:
    From the Finder > Go > Connect to Server.
    Enter the DynDNS-provided Domain Name or Pubic (WAN-side) IP address of the AEBSn, followed by a colon and the Public port number that you choose in step 11 of the previous procedure. For example: afp://www.mydyndnsdomain.com:8888 or afp://123.456.789.123:8888
    Click Connect.
    You should be prompted for your user name and password. The user name can be anything you like; the password should be the Disk password for the AEBSn that you created in step 6 previously.
    Click Connect.

    You picked the local sysvol path on the DC which does not exist on

    The Path to the script MUST be an UNC path starting like
    \\mrc.net\sysvol\mrc.net\Policies\...
    Second: You CANNOT execute PS1 directly (unless you change the .ps1 file
    extension configuration). The "Name" MUST be "powershell.exe", and the
    script itself goes into "Parameters".

  • How can I map a drive to Azue file shares without user intervention or having a user logged on?

    I have the file share created, and can manually map the drive. I have even created a batch file that will create the drive mapping.  One step further, I used the following regedit to create the mapped drive:
    Regedit:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
    add new string value:
    value name:  MapS
    value data:  c:\azurefileshare.bat
    I have a scheduled task running a batch file running the net use command, and the drive is available, and I can create/delete files, so access is not an issue.
    All works fine if I log onto the server, however, what I am trying to accomplish, is to have that drive mapped upon reboot without having a user log on.   Checking the log file running the net use command when no one is logged on, I get the following:
    Status       Local     Remote                    Network
    Unavailable  S:        path of file share
    Microsoft Windows Network
    The command completed successfully.
    New connections will be remembered.
    Is there a way to accomplish this?  Thanks in advance.

  • Trouble synching mapped network drive in Windows 8

    Hello
    I have recently bought a Sony Vaio Pro13 with Windows 8. I have also just upgraded to Windows 8.1. I have another laptop running windows 7 to which I have mapped the network drive at my place of work. On the W7 computer, files are available offline and I can
    synchronize them without any problem using the VPN.
    I mapped the network drive to my new laptop running windows 8 but only about half of the offline files were made available offline and it was not possible to synchronize. I then started again, by deleting the mapped drive, deleting the offline files in the
    CSC folder, moved the folder elsewhere and increased the space available for offline files. I then successfully mapped the drive and copies of all offline files were available on the laptop (after about 2 hours of synchronizing!).
    However, I have not been able to synchronize the files since. The VPN works for other things (e.g. subscription websites which need a VPN connection) but the network drive is showing as either offline, or when I try to synchronize, the process begins and then
    I get a 'failed' message (currently 'the username or password is incorrect'). This can't be the case, or I wouldn't be on the VPN or accessing emails via Outlook - and in any case, it worked once with exactly the same credentials. I double checked in the windows
    credentials as well. The sync centre also says that the drive is 'offline (background sync)'.
    My IT administrators do not have any suggestions apart from removing 8 and installing 7 because they do not currently support Windows 8...
    Do you have any suggestions as to why the VPN works, the files have been made available offline, but the networked drive will now not sync?
    Thank you
    Liz

  • Desktop Folder Redirection slow access

    Ok, I've scoured the network for weeks now trying to resolve this.
    Using Windows 7 fully patched, and file servers are 2012 R2
    We have folder redirection in place for Documents and Desktop.
    The folders are redirected to one of their mapped drives.  When accessing the mapped drive, the drive hangs whilst the green progress bar occurs when trying to display the desktop folder.  Once accessed, this can be ok for further accesses but
    then may recur again later.  It is only the desktop folder.  Documents is fine.  I've tried customising the folder for item type, removed the icon cache, indexed the server, recreated local profiles, moved information off and deleted the folder
    on server to allow to recreate etc etc.  The issues as I say is intermittent but extremely frustrating.
    The group policies originally redirected to a mapped drive when the home directory was set up in AD.  However, we've moved away from that, and now the group policies use unc for the redirected folders.  All permissions on the server are set up
    correctly according to the MS kbs.  Some people don't appear to have the issue.
    The desktop in favorites in Windows Explorer appears to respond fine even when the mapped drive doesn't.  Occasionally the mapped drive is fine, and in this case the Desktop in Favorites isn't.
    I've checked the registry, all values in Shell Folders and User Shell Folders are set up correctly.
    I've reached the end of what could be wrong, and have no idea what is causing this issue.  Any help greatly appreciated.
    Regards

    Hi lan cope,
    Please take a try to uncheck the "Automatically detect settings"
    under
    Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN Settings -> Automatic Configurations.
    Check if this could help here.
    Besides, disable TCP autotuning with the following command and check again:
    netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
