Where to find additional information
After you have successfully tested CIFS client access, you can perform advanced CIFS configuration or add SAN access. After you have successfully tested CIFS and NFS client access, you can perform advanced CIFS and NFS configuration or add SAN access. When protocol access is complete, you should protect the root volume of SVM. There are express guides and comprehensive guides to help you achieve these goals.
SMB/CIFS configuration
You can further configure CIFS access using the following guide:
SMB/CIFS File Access Reference Guide
Describes how to configure and manage file access using the SMB/CIFS protocol.
NFS configuration
You can further configure NFS access using the following comprehensive guide:
NFS File Access Reference Guide
Describes how to configure and manage file access using the NFS protocol.
Root volume protection
After configuring protocols on the SVM, you should ensure that its root volume is protected:
Describes how to create load-sharing mirrors on every node of an ONTAP cluster to protect the SVM root volume, which is a Lenovo-best practice for NAS-enabled SVMs. Also describes how to quickly recover from volume failures or losses by promoting the SVM root volume from a load-sharing mirror
