The feature to place them in /sharedfolders was disabled by default in OMV 5. See:
https://forum.openmediavault.org/index.php/Thread/31191-OMV-5-3-3-1-disabling-sharedfolder-feature-why/?pageNo=1Thanks for your prompt reply, gderf. 
So if I understand correctly:
- I should use the actual path of the share in scripts instead, OR
- create a symlink and use that in the script.
The OMV5 GUI still uses the 'sharedfolder names' defined in the services (f.e. RSync (source and destination), FTP (shared folder), NFS (shared folder) , SMB / CIFS (shared folder), etc)
I tried to find /srv/dev-disk-by-label-DISKNAME/SHARENAME but could not find these. Only the actual paths.
So I guess that next to creating sharedfolders in the sharedfolder tab I should create symbolic links for each of these to have references to the sharedfolders in a 'short way'?
I would use the actual path. Symlinks can work, but are an extra step and one more thing that can be broken.
Creating a share is still something that is needed if some thing you are trying to configure uses a drop down list and can not have a path inserved by the user.
Understood, thanks! 
Just a reminder. When you create a shared folder you select a disk, and then a folder on that disk. If the folder doesn't exist, it is created for you. That's where the shared folder is located.
