NFS Client

The NFS Client page provides a list of all the network file system (NFS) clients mounted on the current host. Using this page, you can:

  • Mount, unmount, and delete clients.

  • Access the page that allows you to edit the properties of individual clients.

  • Access the page that allows you to add NFS clients to the host.

  • Refresh updates the network file system (NFS) client page with latest list of network file clients mounted on current host. This is helpful to fetch updates which are done directly on host, instead through Enterprise Manager.

  • View the statistics of the various clients.
