9.2. Creating the NFS cluster

Since NFS is based on object storage, creating the NFS cluster is similar to creating the S3 cluster. Do the following:

  1. On the Infrastructure > Networks screen, make sure that the OSTOR private and NFS traffic types are added to your networks.

  2. In the left menu, click Storage services > NFS.

  3. Select one or more nodes, and then click Create NFS cluster on the right pane.

    Note

    The nodes are displayed with small icons representing their roles within a cluster. For more information on the icons, refer to https://kb.acronis.com/content/61024.

  4. Make sure the correct network interface is selected in the drop-down list, and then click Proceed.

    If necessary, click the cogwheel icon and configure the node’s network interfaces on the Network configuration screen.

  5. Click CREATE.

After the NFS cluster has been created, you can proceed to creating NFS shares.
