Has anyone built out a CMDB Class for DFS/Windows Shared Folders, or a Discovery Pattern for the same?  Looking to manage our Shared Folder Requests (New Build, Request Access) using CMDB CIs.  Thanks.

Same here.  Specifically, the ability to discover "DFS-N" relationships.

@Randy Jenkins - are you pursuing developing your own patterns for discovering these CIs?

Hi Jonah, I work with Randy, since we don't have much experience with creating custom patterns our initial approach will be import the data. Our DFS information is backed up to an xml which we intend to import to the Storage File Shares table.
