Creating a Rule for a Group of Hosts Running on the Same Operating System
The platform rule is similar to the group rule in that the rule is applied to all
hosts running the same operating system.
All hosts running the same operating system must mount directories using
exactly the same syntax. For example, all Windows workstations must mount
the NAS on the N:\ mount point to use the same path translation rule for the
NAS.
NOTE Platform names must be unique and must not conflict with host names or
group names.
The syntax of the platform rule is as follows:
<map src_os=<src_os> src_path=<src_path>
dst_os=<dst_os> dst_path=<dst_path>>
You must enter a value for each attribute. See the following table for a
description of the valid values for each attribute.
NOTE The src_os and dst_os attributes are restricted to the following values: Linux,
WindowsNT, and MacOSX.
