Itīs part of the share name.
This name does not need to have a -1, nor is it bad to have -1 at the end. The share name can be arbitrarily chosen.
The path /usr2 seems odd, though.
In principle, one can chose the directory names arbitrarily as well.
But /usr is a system directory. /usr2 would indicate, that it is also a (duplicate) system directory.
Imho, a path /data or /shares would be more appropiate, but ymmv.You must always face the curtain with a bow.
