STATUS_TOO_MANY_SESSIONS

Your computer network adapter has too many NetBIOS sessions currently active. STATUS_TOO_MANY_SESSIONS (0xC00000CE) error is usually caused by client behavior where some users continue to setup CIFS sessions but never close them. If the session number reach a certain limit, new sessions are rejected.

Disconnect from any resources that you are not currently using and then retry the command. Contact your network administrator if you continue to have problems. Modifying the parameter on the NAS server that is responsible for logging out idle users to a small value to kick out inactive sessions resolves the issue.
