Avalanche: How to set up an Avalanche CIFS test that each user writes a unique file to a file server?
The CIFS example below illustrates the actions, directory/file and forms database needed to create and write a unique file to a file server or a DUT (device under test).  Each user will create a unique file - ten files total named test1.txt to test99.txt.  Modify the range in action SEQUENTIAL below if more files are needed.  The example uses the Avalanche client and server as reference; modify your server IP address, username, password, directory, etc. as needed.  For more information of the CIFS subcommands please refer to the Avalanche online help.  FSTREE=temp1 ASSIGN VARIABLE ASSIGN VARIABLE ASSIGN VARIABLE ASSIGN VARIABLE ASSIGN VARIABLE ASSIGN VARIABLE CIFSNG://192.168.1.1 USER=test PASSWD=test123 AUTH_TYPE=NTLM AUTHDOMAIN=VIAVI.com CONNECTION_TREE=\\192.168.1.1\temp1 CIFS_SUB_CMD CIFS_READ_BLK_SIZE = 16384 CIFS_SUB_CMD CIFS_WRITE_BLK_SIZE = 16384 CIFS_SUB_CMD OPEN_NEW FILENAME_VAR= CIFS_SUB_CMD WRITE FILENAME_VAR= OFFSET=1 BYTE_SIZE=120000 INPUT_SOURCE_VAR= INPUT_OFFSET=1 CIFS_SUB_CMD CLOSE FILENAME_VAR=   You will need to specify a source file (located on your PC) to support the INPUT_SOURCE_VAR action.  In the Client > Actions > Directories tab, create a new directory called temp1.  Please refer to picture below:  Note the directory/folder with test.1.txt is located on your local PC.  Create the directory and a file with some contents if needed.     Next refer to the picture below, create a Forms database called Form_0002 to support the actions ASSIGN VARIABLE and INPUT_SOURCE_VAR=
