in exportsfs, you can export a path that uses a different backing store, via the "actual" option.
so, if you have a volume called (e.g.) "changeme", but you want users to see it as "newname", use:
/vol/newname/QTREE -actual=/vol/changeme/QTREE

Is it possible to define aliases for existing nfs volumes ?
I need to do some reorg of volumes and qtrees; specifically implement a new naming strategy for volumes. I have 12 volumes with some 200 qtrees being mounted by about 60 Unix machines. Since I can't shut them all down at the same time I'm looking if there is a way that an alias can be created for an existing volume so that I can make the required changes with minimum disruption.
Thanks, George
