NFS Enabling & Sharing

First verify if nfs packages are installed and service is running.

pkg info | grep -i nfs

Step 1:

zfs set share=name=fs1,path=/fs1,prot=nfs mypool/fs1

Step 2:

zfs set sharenfs=on mypool/fs1

Solaris 10 Way of Doing the Same

vi /etc/dfs/sharetab

# share -F nfs /fs1

# cat /etc/dfs/sharetab

/fs1 - nfs rw

Save and exit the file.

Get Share information

zfs get all mypool/fs1 | grep nfs

# zfs get sharenfs mypool/fs1

NAME PROPERTY VALUE SOURCE

mypool/fs1 sharenfs on local

# zfs get share mypool/fs1

NAME PROPERTY VALUE SOURCE

mypool/fs1 share name=mypool_fs1,path=/fs1,prot=nfs local

Unsharing the share

To unshare the shared file system using the share-path property :

# zfs set -c share=path=/fs1 mypool/data

share 'mypool_fs1' was removed.
