Shared Folder name changes are not updated with other users who access the share.
Resolution
Workaround Steps for the Sharee:
- From the GroupWise Client, go to the properties of the parent shared folder.
- From the General Tab | Select Repair All Sub-Folders
Note: This should sync down any name changes for sub-folders; however, the parent folder name is not updated. If that is the issue, please recreate the share with the new desired name.
Status

Steps to duplicate:
- User1 create a folder and subfolder and share it with user2
- User2 accepts the share with the name provided by user1
- User1 renames the subfolder
- Subfolder name change is never synced to user2
Note: Also, if user1 (owner) were to rename the parent shared folder, that would never be updated to any sharees and the Repair All Sub-Folders would not repair this as it's not considered a subfolder.
