Learn how to create an NFS volume for the Elastic zone-redundant storage.
Note
This workflow is for Elastic zone-redundant storage. For Flexible, Standard, Premium, and Ultra volumes, see Create an NFS volume.
Before you begin
- You must have a NetApp Elastic account.
- You must have configured a capacity pool with the Zone-redundant service level.
Considerations
- You can't change the protocol of a volume after creating it.
- Each volume in a capacity pool must have a unique name.
- In Elastic zone-redundant storage, you can't move volumes between capacity pools.
- After creating the volume, you can check its status in the volume's overview page to see if it's online or offline.
Note
If you're creating a volume with the REST API and no option is provided for the hide snapshot path, it's hidden by default.
Create an NFS volume
In your account, select Volumes.
Select + Add Volume.
In the Basics tab:
- Select the Capacity pool the volume belongs to.
- Enter the Volume name.
- Assign the Quota in GiB. For sizing limits, see Azure NetApp Files Elastic service level resource limits.
Select Show advanced section to add a configured snapshot policy or hide the snapshot path. You can also change the options in the advanced section after you create the volume.
Select Next.
Configure the Protocol.
- For the Protocol type, choose NFS.
- Enter the File path.
- In the Version dropdown, choose either NFSv3 or NFSv4. For information on the difference between NFS versions, see Understand NAS protocols.
- Optionally, configure an export policy for the NFS volume
Select Review + create.
Review your selections. Select Create to finalize the volume.
Return to the Volume menu then select your volume to view it.
Note
You can't perform any operations on the volume until the volume creates successfully.
Resize a volume
In your NetApp account, select Volumes.
Select the volume you want to modify.
In the overview for the volume, select Resize.
Enter the new quota in GiB in the Quota field. The Available quota displays the available space in the capacity pool.
Select OK to confirm the new quota.
