Hello,

 

We have an volume with an export policy applied:

 

volA = policy1

 

The policy has client match rules for the ESXi hosts.

 

However when we try and add this volume to an ESXi host we get an error saying mount request denied. 

 

If we add a rule to the default export policy within the same SVM the volume is then added without issue. 

 

Similarly if we apply ‘policy1’  to the root volume in the associated SVM we are able to mount ‘volA’ on the ESXi hosts.

 

Doesn’t this kind of defeat the object of having an export policy associated with the volume if the underlying root volume controls the export access? Or is this a bug?

 

We are running 9.1P1.

 

Thanks
