Configuring Front-End Services

Front-end services provide client access to namespace storage. Supported front-end

services include

• Network File System (NFS), and

• Common Internet File System (CIFS).

You can enable one or more of these services on a global server, so that clients can

access them through the global server’s fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) or the

virtual server’s VIP. For each service, you determine which namespace volumes are

available as storage resources.
