SYMPTOMS
A Macintosh volume may be deleted while there are one or more clients that are still connected and have open files. When you remove a Macintosh volume, the Services for Macintosh server should queue the remove request until all client sessions are closed or have disconnected because the session timed-out.



CAUSE
Services for Macintosh is not properly delaying the removal of the volume until after all client sessions have been closed.



RESOLUTION
Do not remove a volume until all client sessions to that volume have properly disconnected from the volume or have closed any open files. Open files can be viewed using the MacFile control panel tool. Once all client files are closed, any open sessions can be disconnected using the MacFile tool.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT Server versions 3.51 and 4.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
