name

string

The name of the SVM.

uuid

string

The unique identifier of the SVM.

name_mapping

Name mapping is used to map CIFS identities to UNIX identities, Kerberos identities to UNIX identities, and UNIX identities to CIFS identities. It needs this information to obtain user credentials and provide proper file access regardless of whether they are connecting from an NFS client or a CIFS client.

Name Type Description

_links

_links

client_match

string

Client workstation IP Address which is matched when searching for the pattern. You can specify the value in any of the following formats:

  • As an IPv4 address with a subnet mask expressed as a number of bits; for instance, 10.1.12.0/24

  • As an IPv6 address with a subnet mask expressed as a number of bits; for instance, fd20:8b1e:b255:4071::/64

  • As an IPv4 address with a network mask; for instance, 10.1.16.0/255.255.255.0

  • As a hostname

direction

string

Direction in which the name mapping is applied. The possible values are:

  • krb_unix - Kerberos principal name to UNIX user name

  • win_unix - Windows user name to UNIX user name

  • unix_win - UNIX user name to Windows user name mapping

index

integer

Position in the list of name mappings.

pattern

string

Pattern used to match the name while searching for a name that can be used as a replacement. The pattern is a UNIX-style regular expression. Regular expressions are case-insensitive when mapping from Windows to UNIX, and they are case-sensitive for mappings from Kerberos to UNIX and UNIX to Windows.

replacement

string

The name that is used as a replacement, if the pattern associated with this entry matches.
