How to Create a FedFS Referral

Before You Begin

You must have an NFS server installed.

1. Become an administrator.
2. Create a connection entry for an NSDB.

   This command creates a connection entry between the NSDB that is defined on the LDAP server and an NFS server.

   # nsdbparams update -D cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=org -w example.org nsdb.example.org

3. Create a FedFS referral.

   # nfsref -t svc-type add path location

   –t svc-type

   Specifies the service type of the referral

   For example:

   # nfsref -t nfs-fedfs add /share/docs server2:/usr/local/docs server3:/tank/docs
   Created reparse point /share/doc
