vfiler set options

francoisbnc — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 06:13:34 GMT

Hi,

I would like set some options during WFA vfiler creation and the only way I found is

Invoke-NaSsh -ControllerName 172.16.4.134 -Command "vfiler run options vftest cifs.restrict_anonymous 1"

The problem is that invoke-NAssh don't use connect-wfacontroller credentials and I need to cache them before with add-NACrendentials.

Does exist a way to use invoke-NAssh with WFA integrated cretentials or set options in vfilers in others ways.

Thanks in advance.

HI Francois,

In a custom command to set options in a vfiler, i have used the below in the command code:

param (

[parameter(Mandatory=$true, HelpMessage="Array name or IP address")]

[string]$Array,

[parameter(Mandatory=$true, HelpMessage="Name of the vfiler")]

[string]$VfilerName,

[parameter(Mandatory=$true, HelpMessage="options name")]

[string]$OptionName,

[parameter(Mandatory=$true, HelpMessage="option value")]

[string]$Value

)

# connect to controller

Connect-WFAController -Array $Array -Vfiler $VfilerName

# in vfiler context

Set-NaOption -OptionName $OptionName -OptionValue $Value

This code will help you connect to the vfiler directly and Connect-WFAController will take the credentials from what the user sets in WFA credentials

Hope this helps
