There is a share limit per controller, but it's based on model/system memory. I'd start here.

But just to give you an idea, it seems to run from about 12,000 on older, small systems to as high as 192,000 on 6000-class controllers.

Is there any limit to the number of CIFS shares that can be defined on/under a filer / clustered pair / aggregate / volume / qtree / etc.?
Until next time...
