xp_cmdshell '\\servername\sharename'
The mapping to drive Z: only exists under your login, not under the
login that the SQL Server service runs under. You also need to make
sure that the SQL Server service account has access to the share.

How can i get list of all files on z by using xp_cmdshell 'dir z:' ?What account is SQL Server running as? It must have permissions to the Z:\
(typically this means you must set up SQLServer to run as a Domain\User as
opposed to a local user or built-in account).
