Has anyone fond a quick way to touch all CIFS shares and directories on

filer to convert the directories immediately to Unicode so all snapshots thereafter are clean?
From UNIX: find /filer_root -name .snapshot -prune -o -name SOMETHING_THAT_WONT_MATCH -print
That works only if your UNIX box is a Linux box using "smbfs" to access the filer (and I have the impression that may not work), or you have some other UNIX client that uses CIFS rather than NFS.
Otherwise, they'll be NFS accesses, which don't cause directory conversion.
NFS access triggers conversion with ONTAP 4.0 or later, unless I'm misreading the 5.3 docs. Check here:

Of course this could be wrong, wouldn't be the first error in the 5.3 documentation. BTW, when does NetApp plan on releasing non-ambiguous docs for second level virtual interfaces?
