4. In the Hostspecification field, enter the IP address or host name for the host that can mount the
specified data in the NFS share.
5. In the Options field, enter actions that users can take with the data in the NFS share, such as ro for
read-only access or rw for read-and-write access. Separate each option with a comma.
6. Click Save to add the NFS protocol to the ClientAccessControl list on the ConfigureNFS dialog
box or NFS General Configuration page.
7. Click OK to save changes and exit the dialog box, or save changes and exit the wizard.
Caution:Any time you make configuration updates from the QuantumvmPROConfiguration
Wizard, you must exit the wizard using the Summary tab to save your updates. See Initially
Configuring a vmPRO Appliance.
Mounting Options
Users can mount NFS shares from the NAS as a Linux network drive using <vmPRO-Host:/directory>,
where vmPRO-Host is the name of the host on which to mount the directory and /directory is the directory
to mount.
Note:We strongly recommend using the NFS protocol for Linux client machines accessing the
vmPRO /export network file system. If a Linux client machine uses the CIFS protocol, specify the
directio mount option at the mount command. For example: # mount.cifs -o ..,directio
<share> <mount point>
Additional Functions

box or NFSGeneralConfiguration page:
