Managing NAS Volumes
A NAS volume is a subset of the NAS pool in which you create SMB shares and/or NFS exports to make storage space available to
clients. NAS volumes have specic management policies controlling their space allocation, data protection, security style, and so on.
You can either create one large NAS volume consuming the entire NAS pool or divide the NAS pool into multiple NAS volumes. In
either case you can create, resize, or delete these NAS volumes.
NAS volume availability depends on the availability of the Storage Centers. If a Storage Center is oine, storage center LUNs will not
be available for the FluidFS cluster, and access to the shares and/or exports will be lost. Correct the Storage Center problem to
resume service.
The following NAS features can be congured on each NAS volume:
