Q: 10.7 and spotlight on xsan 2.3 with afp share returning alias results

I am currently experiencing a spotlight problem with an afp share on an xsan volume. All of the san controllers and clients can search via spotlight and get results that are "valid (no alias issues)". All of the afp clients that are attached to a share inside the volume will search but returns aliases and no location path. If I create a share of the volume the afp client spotlight results work correctly "valid (no alias issues)". Has any one else experienced this issue?

Yeah, just go into your Library folder in your home folder and delete the com.apple.xsanadmin plist file. And then also delete anything with the name xsan in your ~/Library/Caches folder.

Sorry. I have no idea why this posted into this thread. Was intended for another one where it posted correctly.
