mx vnfs – Virtual NFS Service commands
These commands are provided by MxFS-Linux and are used to manage
Virtual NFS Services.
Add a Virtual NFS Service
mx vnfs add [--exportgroup <exportgroup_name>|NONE]
[--policy autofailback|nofailback] <vnfs> <network_interface> ...
The --exportgroup option specifies the export group to be associated with
this Virtual NFS Service. The --policy option specifies the failback action
that the Virtual NFS Service will take following failover to a backup node.
autofailback will fail back when a higher-ranked node provides equal or
greater services than the backup node; nofailback fails back only if a
higher-ranked node provides greater services than the backup node.
autofailback is the default.
vnfs is the hostname or IP address of the Virtual NFS Service.
network_interface is the IP address for the interface.
The order in which you specify the network interfaces determines the
ordering for failover. The first network interface is the primary interface;
network traffic for the virtual host goes to the node providing this interface.
