SAN shares disappear!

I am having issues with my file and app servers shares.
The servers are Windows 2003 with current updates and
they are attached to an HP SAN.

I am creating shares on the SAN drives and setting rights
at the NTFS level. After the server reboots, the shares
are gone, but NTFS permissions are still there. If I
create a share on the local C: drive, the shares remain
after the reboot.

This just came up recently, because we have had these
servers up for months and haven't seen this issue until
the last week or so.

Basic info...
1. The DCs are also 2003
2. No errors in event viewer that point to this
3. I have removed the anti-virus software as a test
4. I turned of Volume Shadow on the one server it was
running on
5. No extra apps running on these servers, they are not
in production as of yet.

Any help would be appreciated!

Jason
