The warning "DRM Invalid share name or repository location" typically indicates an issue with the share name or repository location configured for the Dell Repository Manager (DRM) tool. This warning suggests that the specified share name or repository location is not valid or cannot be accessed.
To troubleshoot this warning, you can try the following steps:
Verify the share name or repository location: Double-check the share name or repository location you have configured in DRM. Ensure that it is correctly specified and matches the actual location where the repository files are stored.
Check network connectivity: Ensure that the network connection between the system running DRM and the share or repository location is stable and functional. Check if you can access the share or repository location from the DRM system using the configured credentials.
Validate share permissions: Ensure that the share or repository location has the appropriate permissions set. The user or account running DRM should have read and write access to the share or repository location.
Verify share accessibility: If you are using a network share, ensure that the share is accessible and available. Check if you can access the share from other systems or try accessing it using different credentials.
Check for typos or syntax errors: Review the share name or repository location configuration in DRM for any typos or syntax errors. Make sure there are no extra spaces, missing characters, or incorrect syntax in the configuration.
Restart DRM: Sometimes, restarting DRM can resolve configuration-related issues. Try restarting the DRM tool and see if the warning disappears.
