Summary of Changes

Hello @tsaishawn, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request enhances the clarity and accuracy of the SMB documentation. It refines descriptions for key configuration fields during SMB share creation and updates the procedural steps for modifying existing shares, ensuring users receive more precise instructions and have appropriate expectations regarding the application of changes.

Highlights

  • Documentation Clarity: Clarified the purpose of port 445 for Windows clients when configuring SMB shares and simplified the description for 'Map To Guest' options.
  • Terminology Update: Updated the action button label from 'Edit' to 'Update' in the steps for modifying SMB shares.
  • Improved User Guidance: Added a new step advising users to wait a few minutes for settings to take effect after updating an SMB share.

🧠 New Feature in Public Preview: You can now enable Memory to help Gemini Code Assist learn from your team's feedback. This makes future code reviews more consistent and personalized to your project's style. Click here to enable Memory in your admin console.

Code Review

This pull request revises the SMB documentation. While the changes aim to clarify some steps, they also remove helpful examples and introduce a minor inconsistency. My review includes suggestions to restore the examples for better user guidance and points out an inconsistency between a section header and its content to improve clarity.

1. Click the **Create** button.
2. **Name**: Enter a unique name for the share.
3. **Port**: Optionally specify a custom port (default is 445).
3. **Port**: Optionally specify a custom port (use 445 port for Windows client).

The updated description for the port removes the information that 445 is the default. While mentioning it's used for Windows clients is helpful, knowing the default value is also important for users. Please consider combining both pieces of information for better clarity.

3.  **Port**: Optionally specify a custom port. The default is 445, which is standard for Windows clients.

4. **Size**: Specify the storage size for the share (e.g., 100 GB).
5. **Common Configuration**:
- **Map To Guest**: Configure how to handle guest access (e.g., `Never`, `Bad User`).
- **Map To Guest**: Configure how to handle guest access.

Removing the examples for Map To Guest makes the documentation less helpful, as they provide valuable context on expected values. It would be beneficial to restore them. For consistency with the table description on line 32, you could also include Bad Password as an example.

    - **Map To Guest**: Configure how to handle guest access (e.g., `Never`, `Bad User`, `Bad Password`).


1. Select **Edit** from the actions menu (pencil icon).
2. Update the desired settings (e.g., **Size**, **Valid Users**, **Browsable**).

Changing 'Edit' to 'Update' in this step creates an inconsistency with the section header '### Edit SMB Share' on line 66. To avoid user confusion, consider aligning the terminology. If 'Update' is correct, the section header should probably be changed as well in a separate PR.

1. Select **Edit** from the actions menu (pencil icon).
2. Update the desired settings (e.g., **Size**, **Valid Users**, **Browsable**).
1. Select **Update** from the actions menu (pencil icon).
2. Update the desired settings.

Removing the examples of settings that can be updated (e.g., Size, Valid Users, Browsable) makes this instruction more vague. Restoring these examples would provide clearer guidance to the user on what they can modify.

2.  Update the desired settings (e.g., **Size**, **Valid Users**, **Browsable**).
