Assigning export policies to qtrees

Instead of exporting an entire volume, you can export a specific qtree on a volume to make it directly accessible to clients. You can use Storage Manager to export a qtree by assigning an export policy to the qtree. You can assign an export policy to one or more qtrees from the Qtrees window.

1. Click Storage > Qtrees.
2. Select the Qtree to modify and click the more icon .
3. Select Edit Export Policy.
4. Choose if you want to inherit the policy from the volume, if you want to add a new export policy, or if you will use an existing export policy.

   • To add a new export policy, you need to assign clients, assign the read-only and read-write rule, and assign a rule index.

   • To use an existing export policy, you need to select it from the list.

5. Click Save.
