Before you add an SMB file share to the inventory of the virtual infrastructure, check the following prerequisites:

2. Specify the path to the SMB file share and access credentials.
3. Specify advanced SMB file share settings.
4. Specify file share processing settings.
5. Apply file share settings.
6. Finish working with the wizard.
