Manage NFS networking using the CLI

This page describes how to configure the NFS networking using the CLI.

Using the CLI, you can:

Configure the NFS global settings

NFSv4 and Kerberos require a persistent cluster-wide configuration filesystem for the protocol's internal operations.

Use the following command line to set the NFS configuration on the configuration filesystem:

weka nfs global-config set [--mountd-port mountd-port] [--config-fs config-fs] [--lockmgr-port lockmgr-port] [--statmon-port statmon-port] [--notify-port notify-port] [--acl acl] [--default-acl-type default-acl-type] [--default-supported-versions default-supported-versions]... [--enable-auth-types enable-auth-types]... [--no-restart]

To support NFS file-locking, ensure the system meets the prerequisites outlined in NFS file-locking support.
For the default published ports, see the Required ports.

Configure the service mountd port

The mountd service receives requests from clients to mount to the NFS server. It is possible to set it explicitly rather than have it randomly selected on each server startup. This allows an easier setup of the firewalls to allow that port.

Use the following command lines to set and view the mountd configuration:

weka nfs global-config set --mountd-port <mountd-port>

weka nfs global-config show

Configure user group resolution

NFS-W can authenticate more than 16 user groups, but it requires the external resolution of the user's groups, which means associating users with their respective group-IDs outside of the NFS protocol.

Procedure

Configure interface groups:
- See Create interface groups.
Configure NFS client permissions:
- See Set the NFS client permissions.
Set up servers for group-IDs retrieval:
- Configure relevant servers to retrieve user group-IDs information. This task is specific to NFS-W and does not involve WEKA management. See the following procedure.

Set up the servers to retrieve user's group-IDs information

For the servers that are part of the interface group, set the servers to retrieve the user's group-IDs information in any method that is part of the environment.

You can also set the group resolution by joining the AD and Kerberos domains or using LDAP with a read-only user.

Configure the sssd on the server to serve as a group IDs provider. For example, you can configure the sssd directly using LDAP or as a proxy to a different nss group IDs provider.

Example: set sssd directly for nss services using LDAP with a read-only user

[sssd]
services = nss
config_file_version = 2
domains = LDAP

[domain/LDAP]
id_provider = ldap
ldap_uri = ldap://ldap.example.com
ldap_search_base = dc=example,dc=com

# The DN used to search the ldap directory with. 
ldap_default_bind_dn = cn=ro_admin,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com

# The password of the bind DN.
ldap_default_authtok = password

If you use another method than the sssd but with a different provider, configure an sssd proxy on each relevant server. The proxy is used for the WEKA container to resolve the groups by any method defined on the server.

To configure sssd proxy on a server, use the following:

# install sssd
yum install sssd

# set up a proxy for WEKA in /etc/sssd/sssd.conf
[sssd]
services = nss
config_file_version = 2
domains = proxy_for_weka

[nss]
[domain/proxy_for_weka]
id_provider = proxy
auth_provider = none
 
# the name of the nss lib to be proxied, e.g., ldap, nis, winbind, vas4, etc.
proxy_lib_name = ldap

All users must be present and resolved in the method used in the sssd for the group's resolution. In the above example, using an LDAP-only provider, local users (such as a local root) absent in LDAP do not receive their groups resolved and are denied. For such users or applications, add the LDAP user.

Integrate the NFS and Kerberos service

Integrating the NFS and Kerberos service is critical to setting up a secure network communication process. This procedure involves defining the Key Distribution Center (KDC) details, administrative credentials, and other parameters to ensure a robust and secure authentication process.

Before you begin

Ensure a configuration filesystem is set. See Configure the NFS global settings.
Ensure the NFS cluster is configured and running. see Configure the NFS cluster level.
For Active Directory (AD) integration, obtain the required information from the AD administrator. (WEKA handles the generation of the keytab file.)
For MIT integration, ensure the following:
- Obtain the required information from the MIT Key Distribution Center (KDC) and OpenLDAP administrators.
- A pre-generated keytab file in format stored in an accessible location is required.

In all KDC and LDAP parameters, use the FQDN format. The hostname part of the FQDN is restricted to a maximum of 20 characters.

Set the Kerberos service

Command: weka nfs kerberos service setup

Use the following command to set up NFS Kerberos Service information:

weka nfs kerberos service setup <kdc-realm-name> <kdc-primary-server> <kdc-admin-server> [--kdc-secondary-server kdc-secondary-server][--force] [--restart]

`squash`	Permission squashing. Possible values: `none`, `root`, `all` The option 'all' can be used only on interface groups with `--allow-manage-gids=on`	`none`
`anon-uid`*	Anonymous user ID. Relevant only for root squashing. Possible values: `1` to `65535`.	`65534`
`anon-gid`*	Anonymous user group ID. Relevant only for root squashing. Possible values: `1` to `65535`.	`65534`
`obs-direct`	See Object-store Direct Mount. Possible values: `on`, `off`.	`on`
`manage-gids`	Sets external group IDs resolution. The list of group IDs received from the client is replaced by a list determined by an appropriate lookup on the server. Possible values: `on`, `off`.	`off`
`privileged-port`	Sets the share only to be mounted via privileged ports (1-1024), usually allowed by the root user. Possible values: `on`, `off`.	`off`
`acl-type`	Specifies the ACL type. Possible values: `none`, `posix`, `nfsv4`, and `hybrid`. For details, see Access Control List (ACL) in NFS.	Default is determined by the NFS global configuration.
`force-acl-type`	Forces a change to the ACL type for existing permissions on the same filesystem. Possible values: `on` or `off`.	`off`
`supported-versions`	A comma-separated list of supported NFS versions. Possible values: `v3`, `v4`.	The `default-supported-versions` setting in NFS global settings determines the default NFS version.
`enable-auth-types`	A comma-separated list of NFS authentication types. Possible values are determined by the `enable-auth-types` in NFS global settings.	The `default-auth-types` in NFS global settings determine the default.
`no-restart`	Prevents NFS-W containers from restarting when applying changes.	False

Command: weka nfs clients show

Use the following command line to view insights of NFS clients connected to the NFS-W cluster in JSON output format.

weka nfs clients show [--interface-group interface-group] [--container-id container-id] [--fip floating-ip]

Parameters

Name Value Default

Name	Value	Default

`container-id`	NFS-W container ID. A filter to show only the clients connected to the specified container ID.	The output shows all clients connected to any container in the NFS-W cluster.
`fip`	Destination floating IP address.	The output shows all clients connected to all floating IP addresses.

interface-group

Interface group name. A filter to show only the clients connected to the containers in the specified group.

The output shows all clients connected to any container in the NFS-W cluster regardless of the assigned interface group.

container-id

NFS-W container ID.

A filter to show only the clients connected to the specified container ID.

The output shows all clients connected to any container in the NFS-W cluster.

fip
