Permission denied to read Qtree files (luns) on a NFS Export in linux

snemiro514 — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 22:30:57 GMT

I have a DR netapp (Read Only volumes) and I would like to access a particular snapshot from a Linux box. The LUN is linux type.

I was able to configure and enable NFS, create an export policy, export the LUN and assign the policy to the NFS exported LUN.

Now I'm able to mount the NFS volume from my Linux, cd inside it, but any read attemp (LUN or Snapshot) ends in "Permission Denied" error.

any clue or log I can check?

Thanks!

What is the security style of volume?

Hi!

FRom

::> volume show -volume vol_HomeLuns -instance

Security Style: unix
UNIX Permissions: ---rwxr-xr-x

I've seen a doc stating:

exportfs -i -o anon=0 /vol/test_clone

But I couldn't find the exportfs command...(I'm new in NetApp!)

I finally was able to mount it through iSCSI, after rebooting the NetApp.
