You can create folders in cDOT with ZAPI calls. ;)

I think the idea is you can easily make the qtree from ONTAP without having to mount the volume first, like in my first post. Not sure, but I think it requires something squirrelly to make a directory from ONTAP without it being a qtree

Doesn't even need to be a qtree. Can be an empty directory.

Very good point....when I was doing this on the older versions of GX and cDOT, qtrees were non-existent.

There is the base root volume in cDOT (/) where all junctions usually form. You would have to set the export-policy on the root volume to something that is writeable by a client. Mount the root of the cdot filer and create the EMPTY volume call vol. That is your place holder.
Then, when "mounting" a junction in cdot, do something like:
vol mount -volume share_01 -junction-path /vol/share_01
and it should work. I did this in a past job with hundreds of volumes so I can tell you it works. You just need to make sure your export-policies are set the way you want/need and be sure to limit the root volume export-policy when you are done.

I wonder if it's possible to employ 7Mode mount point behavior on cDOT NFS SVM?
An example:
1. I create a volume "share_01" and by default it shows up as "toaster:/share_01".
2. I'd like to access it as "toaset:/vol/share_01"
So, my question is how to add "/vol/" to its junction_path?
