Cannot mount subdirectories from a windows share

Dear Community,

I need to mount a subdirectory of a windows share. When I try it using a Linux OS it's not a problem at all. When I try to mount using Solaris 11.3, then the mountpoint shows the content of the windows share itself, not the content of the subdirectory.

Solaris Version: 11.3.31.6.0 (SPARC)

Mount command:

mount -F smbfs -o user=service.user,domain=ServerName,uid=appadm,gid=sapsys //ServerName/sharename/subdir1/subdir2/subdir3 /montpoint

Output of: mount | grep smbfs

/mnt on //ServerName/sharename/subdir1/subdir2/subdir3 remote/read/write/nosetuid/nodevices/rstchown/intr/acl/xattr/dev=9700013

As said above, mountpoint show the content of the share only (//ServerName/sharename).
