Modify the NFS configuration of a Vserver

Availability: This command is available to cluster and Vserver administrators at the admin privilege level.

Description

The vserver nfs modify command modifies the configuration of an NFS-enabled Vserver.

Parameters

-vserver <vserver name> - Vserver

This specifies the Vserver whose NFS configuration you want to modify.

[-access {true|false}] - General NFS Access

This optional parameter specifies whether NFS access is enabled on the Vserver.

[-rpcsec-ctx-high <integer>] - RPC GSS Context Cache High Water Mark (privilege: advanced)

This optional parameter specifies the maximum number of RPCSEC_GSS authentication contexts, which are used by Kerberos. The default setting is zero at the time of creation. See RFC 2203 for information about RPCSEC_GSS contexts.

[-rpcsec-ctx-idle <integer>] - RPC GSS Context Idle (privilege: advanced)

This optional parameter specifies, in seconds, the amount of time a RPCSEC_GSS context is permitted to remain unused before it is deleted. The default setting is zero seconds at the time of creation. See RFC 2203 for information about RPCSEC_GSS contexts.

[-v3 {enabled|disabled}] - NFS v3

This optional parameter specifies whether to enable access for NFS v3 clients.

[-v4.0 {enabled|disabled}] - NFS v4.0

This optional parameter specifies whether to enable access for NFSv4.0 clients. The default setting is enabled at the time of creation.

[-udp {enabled|disabled}] - UDP Protocol

This optional parameter specifies whether to enable NFS access over UDP.

Note Even if UDP is disabled, if TCP is enabled, the Vserver does not block NFSv3 traffic over UDP. By allowing this traffic, the storage system can process NFS_NULL ops that the Solaris automounter sends to determine if the storage system is alive. (Solaris sends these ops over UDP even if configured to use TCP.) To disallow access for certain clients, including over UDP, you can use export-policy rules. For more information, see the vserver export-policy rule create command.
[-tcp {enabled|disabled}] - TCP Protocol

This optional parameter specifies whether to enable NFS access over TCP.

[-default-win-user <text>] - Default Windows User

This optional parameter specifies a list of default Windows users for the NFS server.

If you set this parameter to fail , this overrides the unix security options set in the relevant export rules. If you set this parameter to use_export_policy , Data ONTAP processes NFSv3 security changes in accordance with the relevant export rules. The default setting is use_export_policy at the time of creation.

[-chown-mode {restricted|unrestricted|use-export-policy}] - Vserver Change Ownership Mode (privilege: advanced)

This optional parameter specifies whether file ownership can be changed only by the superuser, or if a non-root user can also change file ownership. If you set this parameter to restricted , file ownership can be changed only by the superuser, even though the on-disk permissions allow a non-root user to change file ownership. If you set this parameter to unrestricted , file ownership can be changed by the superuser and by the non-root user, depending upon the access granted by on-disk permissions. If you set this parameter to use-export-policy , file ownership can be changed in accordance with the relevant export rules.

For copying read-only files to a destination folder which has inheritable ACLs, this option must be enabled . Warning: When enabled , if an NFS client does not make use of an NFS ACCESS call to check for user-level permissions and then tries to write onto read-only files, the operation will succeed. The default setting is disabled .

[-v3-64bit-identifiers {enabled|disabled}] - Use 64 Bits for NFSv3 FSIDs and File IDs (privilege: advanced)

This optional parameter specifies whether Data ONTAP uses 64 bits (instead of 32 bits) for file system identifiers (FSIDs) and file identifiers (file IDs) that are returned to NFSv3 clients. If you change the value of this parameter, clients must remount any paths over which they are using NFSv3. When -v3-fsid-change is disabled, enable this parameter to avoid file ID collisions.

[-v4-inherited-acl-preserve {enabled|disabled}] - Ignore Client Specified Mode Bits and Preserve Inherited NFSv4 ACL When Creating New Files or Directories (privilege: advanced)
