Open System Services NFS Management and Operations Guide

The configuration file will be rebuilt when the administrator starts OSS NFS objects to build the
new configuration.
Considerations
• Either the OSS NFS manager process must be run by the super ID or the PROGID attribute of
its program file must be set.
• OSS NFS object names used with SCF commands must include the name of the OSS NFS
manager process. SCF uses the object name to decide which manager process receives the
command.
• The OUT file must already exist; the OSS NFS manager process does not create it. This example
creates an OUT file:
FUP CREATE out-file, TYPE E, REC 132, EXT (pri,sec)
• Instead of specifying parameters as part of the RUN command, you can use TACL PARAMs
to set these values before invoking the command.
Adding (Fileset) Servers
A server must be added for every fileset you want to make available through OSS NFS. The ADD
SERVER command is used to add a server. A SERVER object defines a server and specifies how
its files are stored. This topic provides examples of OSS NFS server configurations.
OSS NFS Root Server
Whatever configuration you choose for your filesets, you must always have an OSS NFS root
server. It is the starting point for OSS NFS to resolve pathnames of all files, and it must be started
as the first step in bringing up an OSS NFS subsystem.
Considerations
Consider the following when configuring the root server:
• The OSS NFS root server’s STYPE is OSS.
• The root mount point must be “/”.
Example
This example adds and starts a root server with mount point /, controlled by program NFSSVRHP,
having a process name of ROOT, of server type OSS, and running on primary processor 1 at
priority 190:
ASSUME PROCESS $ZNFS
ADD SERVER ROOT,&
MNTPOINT "/",&
PROGRAM $SYSTEM.ZOSSNFS.NFSSVRHP,&
PROCESS $ROOT,&
STYPE OSS,&
CPU 1,&
PRI 190
START SERVER ROOT
Adding Other Servers
To configure additional NFS filesets, you must add a server mount point for each NFS fileset to the
configuration. The server mount point must correspond to an OSS fileset mount point.
