Need Help Creating Shared Folders or Generic iSCSI Storage on EMC VNXe 3150 - License Issues
I recently purchased a used EMC VNXe 3150. With the help of the community, I was able to obtain the necessary code and link to connect it. However, I am now facing a new issue.
I am trying to create shared folders or generic iSCSI storage, but I receive a pop-up message stating:
Unable to perform the requested operation because:
- Common Internet File System (CIFS) license is not installed.
- Network File System (NFS) license is not installed.
I do not have access to any licenses for these features. Could someone guide me on what steps to take next? How can I obtain and install the necessary licenses to create shared folders or iSCSI storage?
Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Hi,
Thanks for your question.
I am not sure you can buy licenses anymore since it is end of life and end of support and has been for 4 years. You can try the license support team. 800-782-4362 and selecting option 4
Let us know if you have any additional questions.

I believe eml is an older license file type. The license support team is still the best option.
