Setting Up an NFS Server for Offline Replication
Setting Up an NFS Server for Offline Replication
The steps for setting up an NFS server will vary depending on the NFS server type you use.
Refer to your NFS server documentation for specific instructions.
1.
Identify a server that is network ready and has NFS Services enabled.
2.
As root of the NFS server, create a filesystem or share.
3.
Set the file permissions to expose the NFS share only to the IP address of the
source and target appliances.
4.
To encrypt the replication stream, enable on-disk encryption for the NFS share
on the NFS server.
Note - An exported replication stream is never encrypted by the appliance.
5.
Export the share for access by the NFS client.
6.
Verify that the filesystem is shared.

Setting Up an Export Path to the NFS Server (CLI)
1.
Identify or create a replication target.
2.
Create a replication action, set the export_path, and commit the new action.
source:shares default replication> action
source:shares default action (uncommitted)> set target=target_a
target = target_a (uncommitted)
source:shares default action (uncommitted)> set pool=pool2
pool = pool2 (uncommitted)
source:shares default action (uncommitted)> set export_path=nfs://nfs_server/export/
init_repl
export_path = nfs://nfs_server/export/init_repl (uncommitted)
source:shares default action (uncommitted)>commit
