Unable to Create a Share or Quota for a Volume

Linksys Small Business NSS4000 and NSS6000 Series Network Storage System Administration Guide
If all current CIFS connections to the NSS were unexpectedly severed, check to
see if the the hostname the Network Identification page was changed. Changing
the hostname severs any current CIFS connections to the NSS.
To resolve the problem, change the name back to the original hostname.
When you disconnect the Ethernet link and reconnect it, the IP address and link
rate does not reset. For example, if you unplug a cable from the NSS to a 100
Mbps switch and then reconnect the NSS to a 1 Gps switch, the link is
not restored.
To resolve the problem:
Unplug the Ethernet link.
Wait at least 15 seconds.
Reconnect the link.
Wait 10 seconds.
The link is re-established. You can view the status from the System Status page
on the configuration interface.
When you attempt to create a share, the volume does not appear in the Location
field. When you try to create a quota, the quota is not successfully added for
the volume.
The problem is likely caused by the volume being locked. An encrypted volume is
automatically locked whenever the NSS is rebooted or is manually locked through
the configuration interface. As long as the volume is locked, you cannot use the
volume to create shares or quotas (you can however, set up the Home Directory).
