Netapp C-Mode:- how to covert Global export policy into individual users access
Hi Team,

Is there any way to convert global access users to convert into individual
access.

Say for example if any of the policy is having global access of
client...like 0.0.0.0/0 and we would like to convert this into individual
host access by removing this global entry "0.0.0.0\0".
then how can we achieve this without disruptive activity...

can we add all the individual hosts one by one which are accessing through
this global access and then disable the global access parameter from
export-policy rule or do we need to shutdown the application/databases and
then modify the global parameter....

Please let us know if any of them worked on these kind of activity, my goal
is to modify this parameter without bringing down the hosts....

Regards
Yuvaraja

Hi Yuvaraja,

Yes, this is the same for NFSv3 and NFSv4.
For the current connection overview, try the command „network connections active“ on the CLI.

Hi Alexander,

Thanks a lot for your update, so this is same for both nfsv3 as well as nfsv4 version right ?

and got one more question regarding host details collecting according to the volume paths it access it in c-mode..any idea how to collect it...

usually in 7 mode we used to take it by running /usr/sbin/showmount -a vfilername. (so it shows which hosts are accessing the which volumes)..

Yuvaraja

Hi Yuvaraja,

this is exactly how it works – just add the more specific entries to the export policy and once all of them are here, feel free to remove the one with the 0/0 clientmatch.
As long as you do not forget one of your hosts, this operation is non disruptive.

Hi Alexander,

Thanks for confirming on V3 and V4 version..

for host collection: But this does not show the volume paths, do you think
any other commands would fetch host details along with vserver and volume
paths...

Yuvaraja

Hi Yuvaraja,

you can enable showmount on a per-SVM basis:

Maybe that helps?
