Issue/Introduction

When accessing the Destination location on a NetApp device, the NET USE command is invoked. When the NET USE command is used, the command will not allow spaces in the folder name or path because the command is missing double quotes in the string. Examples: \\10.10.10.10\collections\Folder with Space (Fails) \\10.10.10.10\collections\FolderwithOutSpace (Success)
