here is the scenario

I have dev_vfiler on NAS02 and prd_vfiler on NAS01 respectively.

I have a volume prd_vol_app on NAS01 Filer and exported to a server through prd_vfiler

Now, I need that same volume to be exported through dev_vfiler ( volume is on partner* filer )

Want to know is there any way where I can go and edit dev_vfiler -  /etc/exportfs file and point to the volume which is on its partner filer.

thanks in advance

No, it is not possible.

What do you try to achieve? In Unix it is possible to build almost arbitrary directory structure using mount points and/or symbolic links.

to export same volume to a server through both dev and prod vfiler.

so that people who are in dev envt can dump data on to the volume through dev_vfiler and

people who are in prod envt can look at it through prd_vfiler.

Well … make a third vfiler accessible from both dev and prd and export common data from there …
