Freenas setup nfs

Maybe I'm not reading correctly. Backups worked flawlessly. So, next step was to setup Backup Exec job to backup the files to tape. Again, worked fine. Could even perform Instant Recovery of a server, which by the way is pretty cool. Was mucking around and then thought maybe I should use an NFS share instead.

Reading can't remember where that backup performance might be better with NFS. Anybody have this setup who could guide me through this setup and possibly answer the performance question regarding backup target share type?

Joined Nov 19, Messages Currently I'm trying to get NFS ready for my home network. Maybe someone can help me with that. Some of these folders are also used by network users. My whole network is Linux Mint based besides one damn windows client. So NFS should be best choice for file sharing.

In FreeNAS I created a pool storage with a dataset nfs, beneath that some more datasets like music, video, dokuwiki and so on. Is Mint trying to connect with the local account? Only works with Unix ACLs. New files created on the share are set with the selected permissions.

New directories created on the share are set with the selected permissions. Umask is used for newly created files. Default is anyone can read, write, and execute. Enter a list of allowed hostnames or IP addresses. Separate entries with a comma, space, or tab. Enter any additional afp. Lowercase alphanumeric characters plus dot. Separate each entry with a space.

Enter the percentage of free space to remain in the pool. When this percentage is reached, the system issues an alert, but only if zvols are used. Select IP addresses to be listened on by the portal. Initiators currently connected to the system. Initiators allowed access to this system. Example: iqn. Network addresses allowed to use this initiator. Each address can include an optional CIDR netmask. Example: Allow different groups to be configured with different authentication profiles.

Example: enter 1 for all users in Group 1 to inherit the Group 1 authentication profile. Group IDs that are already configured with authorized access cannot be reused.

User account to create for CHAP authentication with the user on the remote system. Many initiators use the initiator name as the user name. User password. Must be at least 12 and no more than 16 characters long. Only entered when configuring mutual CHAP.

Usually the same value as User. Mutual secret password. Required when Peer User is set. Must be different than the Secret. The base name is automatically prepended if the target name does not start with iqn. Select None or an integer. This number represents the number of existing authorized accesses. Enter the extent name. If the Extent size is not 0 , it cannot be an existing file within the pool or dataset.

File shares the contents of an individual file. Device shares an entire device. Only appears when File is selected. Browse to an existing file. Extents cannot be created inside a jail root directory. Entering 0 uses the actual file size and requires that the file already exists. Otherwise, specify the file size for the new file. Only appears when Device is selected. Select the unformatted disk, controller, zvol, or zvol snapshot. Setting can also prevent constant block size warnings when using this share with ESXi.

Only appears if File or a zvol is selected. When the specified percentage of free space is reached, the system issues an alert. Set to allow an initiator to bypass normal access control and access any scannable target. This allows xcopy operations which are otherwise blocked by access control. Do NOT change this setting when using Windows as the initiator. Only needs to be changed in large environments where the number of systems using a specific RPM is needed for accurate reporting statistics.

Select or enter a value between 0 and Some initiators expect a value less than Leave this field blank to automatically assign the next available ID. Browse to the dataset or directory to be shared. Click ADD to specify multiple paths. Text describing the share. Typically used to name the share. If left empty, this shows the Path entries of the share. Restrict some syslog diagnostics to avoid some error messages.

See exports 5 for examples. Example: 1. Leave empty to allow all. The specified permissions of that user are used by all clients. The specified permissions of that group are used by all clients. Choices are sys or these Kerberos options: krb5 authentication only , krb5i authentication and integrity , or krb5p authentication and privacy. If multiple security mechanisms are added to the Selected column using the arrows, use the Up or Down buttons to list in order of preference.

Enter the path or Browse to the pool or dataset to share. Appending a new name to the path creates a new dataset. Ownership of all files in the share will be changed to user webdav and group webdav. Existing permissions will not be changed, but the ownership change might make files inaccesible to their original owners. This operation cannot be undone! Select the pool, dataset, or directory to share. The same path can be used by more than one share. Name the new share.

Each share name must be unique. The names global , homes , and printers are reserved and cannot be used. Set to allow this share to hold user home directories.

Only one share can be the home share. Note that lower case names for user home directories are strongly recommended, as Samba maps usernames to all lower case. For example, the username John will be mapped to a home directory named john. Enable Time Machine backups for this share. Changing this setting on an existing share requres an SMB service restart.

Determine whether this share name is included when browsing shares. Home shares are only visible to the owner regardless of this setting.

Files that are deleted from the same dataset are moved to the Recycle Bin and do not take any additional space. When the files are in a different dataset or a child dataset, they are copied to the dataset where the Recycle Bin is located.

To prevent excessive space usage, files larger than 20 MiB are deleted rather than moved. Disable the Windows hidden attribute on a new Unix hidden file. Unix hidden filenames start with a dot:.

Existing files are not affected. Requires Allow guest access to also be enabled. Forces guest access for all connections. Use Windows administration tools to adjust the share permissions. See smb. Separate entries with a comma , , space, or tab. Enter a list of denied hostnames or IP addresses.

Add virtual file system objects to enhance functionality. Additional smb4. Allow server side rename operations even if source and target are on different physical devices. Required for the recycle bin to work across dataset boundaries. Automatically added when Export Recycle Bin is enabled. Choices are True or False. Default is True.

Default is False. If an extended ACL is present in the share connection path, all access to this share will be denied. When the Read-only attribute is set, all write bits are removed. Disabling the Read-only attribute adds the write bits back to the share, up to create mask umask. Adding noacl requires adding the zfsacl object. Mark all files in the share with the DOS offline attribute. This can prevent Windows Explorer from reading files just to make thumbnail images.

Allow Microsoft shadow copy clients to browse shadow copies on Windows shares. This object uses ZFS snapshots of the shared pool or dataset to create the shadow copies. Moving files or directories sets the ACL for file and directory hierarchies to inherit from the destination directory. Enabled by default.

Freenas And Plex The program supports a very handy web-based interface which provides for control over a web browser. However, their short lifetime, as well as the requirement to use other software tools to issue them, has caused some challenges in integrating them into the FreeNAS web GUI.
