How to Disable RootSquash on PowerScale NFS Export

I am unable to disable rootsquash on a PowerScale NFS export. 

What I've Done:

  1. Disabled root mapping (aka rootsquash) via:
    • PowerScale WebUI → Export Settings → "Do not map root users".
  2. Confirmed via CLI:
    • isi nfs exports view <export_id> --zone <zone> shows map-root-enabled: false.
  3. Validated client IPs:
    • Clients are listed in Clients, Always Read/Write Clients, and Root Clients.
  4. Expected Behavior:
    • Files/directories in client mount should be owned by root (UID 0), not nobody.

Unfortunately my expectations have not been met:(
