Specify the user ID domain for NFSv4

Contributors netapp-aherbin

To specify the user ID domain, you can set the -v4-id-domain option.

About this task

By default, ONTAP uses the NIS domain for NFSv4 user ID mapping, if one is set. If an NIS domain is not set, the DNS domain is used. You might need to set the user ID domain if, for example, you have multiple user ID domains. The domain name must match the domain configuration on the domain controller. It is not required for NFSv3.

Step
  1. Enter the following command:

    vserver nfs modify -vserver vserver_name -v4-id-domain NIS_domain_name
