NetApp NFS Network File Storage
This is a guide on how to access your NFS network file storage hosted on University's Research Data Storage Service (RDSS).
Details of your NFS share
Address: research-nfs.unimelb.edu.au:/faculty_code/department_code-share_name. E.g.:
research-nfs.unimelb.edu.au:/9770/9770-share-name
Before connecting
Access to your NFS share is controlled by a whitelist of static IP addresses (fixed IPs rather than dynamic IPs). If you haven't already whitelisted an address, then you will need to:
(a) lookup the address (using a command such as $ hostname -i ) ; and then
(b) Create a Research IT Infrastructure request (https://go.unimelb.edu.au/8jgi ), requesting that your IP address be whitelisted for this volume. (Please include the share address + IP address in your request).
Also note that you will need to have functional reverse DNS lookups (ie. PTR records) working on your hosts, before connecting.
