Hi Mike,
You can run the commands below to check if Home Directory is configured properly.
::> cifs home-directory search-path show -vserver <svm> <<<<<< This should show all the search paths configured.
::> cifs home-directory show-user -vserver <svm> -username <domain\username> <<< This would show the Home Directory Path for the user if found. if missing then it means the directory for the user is not created.
::> file-directory show -vserver <svm> -path <user_homedir_full_path> << This will show the permission set on the home dir path
