9.3. Creating NFS shares

To create an NFS share, do the following:

  1. On the Storage services > NFS > Shares screen, click Add NFS share.

  2. On the Add NFS Share pane, specify a unique name and an IP address, which must be unused and, if authentication is enabled, domain resolvable. In addition, this IP address should be within the network subnet of the node’s interface. Click Proceed.

  3. In Share size, specify the size of the share in gigabytes. For users accessing exports, this value will be the filesystem size.

  4. Select the desired tier, failure domain, and data redundancy type. For more details on these volume properties, refer to the Installation Guide.

    You will be able to change the redundancy mode later.

  5. Click Done.

After the share has been created, you can proceed to creating NFS exports.
