Adding a Generic NFS system to Igneous
- Login to Igneous
- Select Systems from the left navigation menu
- Click on + Add systems
- Select Generic NFS as the type of NAS you would like to add to Igneous.
Permission settings
Generic NAS systems do not have API integration with Igneous, thus requires manual intervention to allow backups to be performed. For each NFS export that will need to be backed up, you will need to add the
no_root_squash
parameter to the export options. It is recommended to only add this option to the export targeting Igneous source IP addresses so that only Igneous is capable of reading or writing to the export as the root user.
- Enter the Hostname that serves the NFS end point.
- Click Continue and Igneous will begin scanning the system for exports and complete the import process
