It shouldn't change the FSID, but if you remove the volume-level mount. As long as all of the clients are mounting at the qtree level, you should be fine.

Resend, sorry.

Hey Folks,

I've a volume export entry that look like such

/vol/volume -sec=sys,rw, root=xyz

The client mounts it at the qtree like such

Filer:/vol/volume/qtree

I need to re-export this at the qtree level such that client do NOT have the ability to write into the volume, only the qtree, so new/proposed export entry will look like

/vol/volume/qtree sec=sys,rw,root=xyz

Since clients already mount at qtree level, can't I just re-export at the qtree, remove the volume export and exportfs? Will this be any impact, or change to FSID?

Cheers,

Best regards,
