I don't want to recall that you have always strange and really curious questions that cause me doubts about you skills but this last is really surprising.
First you speak about Sun Solaris NFS and now about EVA storage serving a SAN composed by W2K3 hosts...you have a lot of confusions between NAS and SAN, between o.s.native disk management and others...
If you want a 'seriuos' answer to you questions is that you cannot multiply apples with eggs :-) But if you want to forget the EVA world there's a solution...very expensive!
Format you EVA storage as new, put a VFiler in front of it and use the HP LUNs as OnTAP disks... ;-)

Any ideas...???
Very few, since I still don't understand your problem. My literal interpretation is that you want to use Data ONTAP to manage your hsv200.
I don't see how, if NetApp added an NFS client this would allow you to manage the hsv200.

ok the actual problem is that i have an HP SAN (hsv200) running comandview EVA software on HP DL380 Storage server. The operating sys on storage server is Win2003 server r2. I am trying to integrate the HP SAN with ONTAP. i want to maintain ONTAP as a single admin point and not talk to HP SAN through commandview EVA. So one of the solutions that came to my mind was to make a qtree in ONTAP and mount it through NFS onto the HP SAN. So it will be a NFS Client (ONTAP) - NFS Server (commandview EVA) environment.
Any ideas...??? Thanx in advance

Hello... Is there any way to configure ONTAP as an NFS client...through web interface or command line...???
No.
i want to mount a SUN SOLARIS system (as NFS client) on ONTAP ABC qtree (using the mount command on SUN SOLARIS)...and then further mount the ABC volume/qtree of the filer (as NFS client) onto a
UNIX
system...any ideas or suggestions...
I'm intrigued. What problem are you trying to solve?
Thanx
