NFS permissions
We are trying to create and attach an NFS DATASTORE in our VM environment, this drive will be used for tools, ex. iso's, etc.
I have created the file system/mount and the NSF export.
I am able to add the NFS DATASTORE to our esxi cluster.
However, when trying to upload a file or create a new folder I get "this session does not have permissions"
The permissions for the NFS export are
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 1024 Nov 4 07:58 Tools
[nasadmin@BCEC-NAS-120 slot_2]$ cd Tools
[nasadmin@BCEC-NAS-120 Tools]$ ll
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 8192 Nov 4 07:56 lost+found
[nasadmin@BCEC-NAS-120 Tools]$
How do I allow my esxi cluster proper permissions?
Thank you in advance

On the NS/VNX you need to export the FS with "root" permissions to your ESX
There is a "root" option in the export properties of the FS
