• removeserver
• Removes a server from the specified export group. The removal is done so as to maintain a
balanced set of backup hosts across the members.
• Has the following syntax:
modify vnfs action=removeserver network=eth<number> vip=<value>
server=<server>
• addfilesystem
• Adds the specified filesystem to the specified export group.
• Has the following syntax:
vnfs action=addfilesystem exportgroup=<exportgroupname> pathname=<path-
name>
• removefilesystem
• Removes a filesystem from the specified export group.
• Has the following syntax:
modify vnfs action=removefilesystem exportgroup=<exportgroupname>
pathname=<pathname>
• changeoptions
• Modifies the options associated with all records in the specified export group.
• Has the following syntax:
modify vnfs action=changeoptions exportgroup=<exportgroupname> op-
tions=<optionsstring>
• addethernetif
• Extends the default VNFS configuration created by the exdsmgr create vnfs command
onto an additional ethernet interface by:
• Setting up a set of virtual host IP addresses using the values provided on the specified net-
work interface.
• Associating the default export group exds_expg_default with each of the new virtual host
IP addresses.
Example
exdsmgr modify vnfs network=eth2 vip=192.168.9.59 server=9 action=addserver
Editing /etc/exports
Never modify the /etc/exports file directly. The ExDS Matrix software rewrites /etc/exports
so that it corresponds to the filesystems currently exported by a server.
However, the create vnfs and modify vnfs commands only allow you to specify a single client
and associated options for each filesystem. If you want to specifiy multiple different options for a given
filesystem, follow the steps below:
1. Copy /etc/exports to a temporary file. For example:
# cp /etc/exports /tmp/newexports
2. Edit the temporary file. You can add additional entries or modify existing entries. However, make
sure that each filesystem has at least one entry.
