Complete the NFS client configuration worksheet

You require network addresses and storage configuration information to perform NFS client configuration tasks.

Target network addresses

You require a subnet with two IP addresses for NFS data LIFs for each node in the cluster. There should be two separate networks for high availability. The specific IP addresses are assigned by ONTAP when you create the LIFs as part of creating the SVM.

If possible, separate network traffic on separate physical networks or on VLANs.

Subnet for LIFs:

Node or LIF with port to switch	IP address	Network mask	Gateway	VLAN ID	Home port
Node 1 / LIF to switch 1
Node 2 / LIF to switch 1
Node 3 / LIF to switch 1
Node 4 / LIF to switch 1
Node 1 / LIF to switch 2
Node 2 / LIF to switch 2
Node 3 / LIF to switch 2
Node 4 / LIF to switch 2

Storage configuration

If the aggregate and are already created, record their names here; otherwise, you can create them as required:

Node to own NFS export
Aggregate name
name

NFS export information

Export size
Export name (optional)
Export description (optional)

SVM information

If you are not using an existing , you require the following information to create a new one:

SVM name
Aggregate for SVM root volume
SVM user name (optional)
SVM password (optional)
SVM management LIF (optional)
