GANESHA-CORE-CONFIG(8)

NAME
ganesha-core-config - NFS Ganesha Core Configuration File

SYNOPSIS
/etc/ganesha/ganesha.conf

DESCRIPTION

NFS-Ganesha reads the configuration data from: | /etc/ganesha/ganesha.conf

This file lists NFS related core config options.

  NFS_CORE_PARAM {}

Core parameters:

    HAProxy_Hosts (host list, empty)
        This is the list of hosts that can serve as HAProxy load balancers/proxies that will use the HAProxy protocol to indicate to Ganesha the actual end client IP address. This parameter may be repeated to extend the list.

        Host list entries can take on one of the following forms:
            * Match any host @name Netgroup name x.x.x.x/y IPv4 network address, IPv6 addresses are also allowed
                    but the format is too complex to show here

                wildcarded If the string contains at least one ? or *
                    character (and is not simply "*"), the string is used to pattern match host names. Note that [] may also be used, but the pattern MUST have at least one ? or *

                hostname Match a single host (match is by IP address, all
                    addresses returned by getaddrinfo will match, the getaddrinfo call is made at config parsing time)

            IP address Match a single host

    Short_File_Handle(bool, default false)
        Whether to use short NFS file handle to accommodate VMware NFS client. Enable this if you have a VMware NFSv3 client. VMware NFSv3 client has a max limit of 56 byte file handles.

    Manage_Gids_Expiration(int64, range 0 to 7*24*60*60, default 30*60)
        How long the server will trust information it got by calling getgroups() when "Manage_Gids = TRUE" is used in a export entry.

        Frequency of dbus health heartbeat in ms.

    Enable_NLM(bool, default true)
        Whether to support the Network Lock Manager protocol.

    Disable_NLM_SHARE(bool, default false)
        This option allows disabling support for the NLM4PROC_SHARE and NLM4PROC_UNSHARE RPC procedures that implement share reservations for NFSv3 via NLM. With this set to true, these procedures will fail.

    Support for NFS Over RDMA: [3 or 4 or 3,4], nfsrdma, rpcrdma

    The protocols that Ganesha will listen for. This is a hard limit, as this list determines which sockets are opened. This list can be restricted per export, but cannot be expanded.

    NSM_Use_Caller_Name(bool, default false)
        Whether to use the supplied name rather than the IP address in NSM operations.

    Clustered(bool, default true)
        Whether this Ganesha is part of a cluster of Ganeshas. Its vendor specific option.

    fsid_device(bool, default false)
        Whether to use device major/minor for fsid.

    fsid_override(bool, default false)
        Whether to use the Filesytem_id specified in an export definition to override the filesystem ID provided by the underlying filesystem. This enables the ability to export multiple directories from the same underlying filesystem.

        Whether to use Pseudo (true) or Path (false) for NFS v3 and 9P mounts.

        This option defaults to false for backward compatibility, however, for new setups, it's strongly recommended to be set true since it then means the same server path for the mount is used for both v3 and v4.x.

        Note that as an export related option, it seems very desirable to be able to change this on config reload, unfortunately, at the moment it is NOT changeable on config reload. A restart is necessary to change this.

    Dbus_Name_Prefix
        DBus name prefix. Required if one wants to run multiple ganesha instances on single host. The prefix should be different for every ganesha instance. If this is set, the dbus name will be <prefix>.org.ganesha.nfsd

    Enable_UDP(list, valid values [False, True, Mount, NLM, RQuota], default True)
        Whether to create UDP listeners for Mount, NFS, NLM, RQUOTA, and register them with portmapper. Set to false, e.g., to run as non-root. Set to Mount to enable only Mount UDP listener. Set to RQuota to enable only RQUOTA UDP listener. Multiple values can be combined, e.g., Mount, RQuota to enable only Mount and RQUOTA UDP listeners.

    Max_Uid_To_Group_Reqs(uint32, range 0 to INT32_MAX, default 0)
        Maximum number of concurrent uid2grp requests that can be made by ganesha. In environments with a slow Directory Service Provider, where users are part of large number of groups, and Manage_Gids is set to True, uid2grp queries made by ganesha can fail if a large number of them are made in parallel. This option throttles the number of concurrent uid2grp queries that ganesha makes.

    Enable_V3fh_Validation_For_V4(bool, default false)
        Set true to enforce when v3 file handle used for v4

    Readdir_Res_Size(uint32, range 4096 to 64*1024*1024, default 32*1024)
        Response size of readdir request. Suggested values are 4096,8192,16384 and 32768. Recommended 16384(16K) if readdir(ls command) operation performed on directory which has more files.

    Readdir_Max_Count(uint32, range 32 to 1024*1024, default 1024*1024)
        Maximum number of directory entries returned for a readdir request. Suggested values are 4096,8192,16384 and 32768. Recommended 16384(16K) if readdir(ls command) operation performed on directory which has more files.

    Getattrs_In_Complete_Read(bool, default true)
        Whether to call extra getattrs after read, in order to check file size and validate the EOF flag correctness. Needed for ESXi client compatibility when FSAL's don't set it correctly.

    Enable_malloc_trim(bool, default false)
        Set true to enable dynamic malloc_trim support.

    Malloc_trim_MinThreshold(uint32, range 1 to INT32_MAX, default 15*1024)
        Minimum threshold value to call malloc_trim. The malloc_trim will be called once memory allocation exceeds minimum value. Size in MB's. Note, this setting has no effect when Enable_malloc_trim is set to false.

    enable_rpc_cred_fallback(bool, default false)
        if Manage_Gids=True and group resolution fails, then use gid data from rpc request.

    Enable_Connection_Manager(bool, default false)
        When enabled, a client (from the same source IP address), is allowed to be connected to a single Ganesha server at a specific point in time. See details in connection_manager.h

    Connection_Manager_Timeout_sec(uint32, range 0 to UINT32_MAX, default 2*60)
        Timeout for waiting until client is fully disconnected from other Ganesha servers.

    Unique_Server_Id(uint32, range 0 to UINT32_MAX, default 0)
        Unique value to the ganesha node, to diffrintiate it for the rest of the node. will be used as prefix for the Client id, to make sure it is unique between ganesha nodes and file write verifier. if 0 is supplied server boot epoch time in seconds will be used

    Allow_Set_Io_Flusher_Fail(bool, default false)
        In linux, we need to set PR_SET_IO_FLUSHER to avoid a potential deadlock when mounting ganesha locally in a system that nears out memory. This is not possible due to lacking permissions in some environments (specifically unprivileged containers). If you are running in an unprivileged environment and you are sure your use case doesn't require setting PR_SET_IO_FLUSHER, you can enable this option and Ganesha will not fail on startup if it can't set it.

    Max_Client_Ids(uint32, range 0 to UINT32_MAX, default 0)
        Specify a max limit on number of NFS4 ClientIDs supported by the server. With filesystem recovery backend, each ClientID translates to one directory. With certain workloads, this could result in reaching inode limits of the filesystem that /var/lib/nfs/ganesha is part of. The above limit can be used as a guardrail to prevent getting into this situation.

    Server_Scope(string, default "")
        Specify the value which is common for all cluster nodes. For e.g., Name of the cluster or cluster-id.

    Server_Owner(string, default "")
        Connections to servers with the same server owner can be shared by the client. This is advertised to the client on EXCHANGE_ID.

    Virtual_Server(bool, default false)
        When set true, Ganesha will make each IP address appear to NFSv4 clients as a separate server (trunking will not be allowed).

    Ip_Based_Client_Owner_Separation(bool, default false)
        Whether to distinguish between clients based on their IP address in addition to the client owner identifier provided by them for NFS4.1 and above.

    Max_Open_States_Per_Client(uint32, range 0 to UINT32_MAX, default 0)
        Specify the maximum number of files that could be opened by a client. One misbehaving client could potentially open multiple files and exhaust the open FD limit allowed by ganesha's cgroup. Beyond this limit, client gets denied if it tries to open too many files. To disable set to ZERO.

    Expired_Client_Threshold(uint32, range 0 to 256, default 16)
        Specify the threshold of number of expired clients to be kept in memory post lease period, unless the number of unresponsive clients go over this limit. Ganesha keeps track of all expired clients in LRU fashion and picks the oldest expired client when the number of clients exceeds the max limit. This allows Ganesha to retain the open & lock state and there by helping certain client workloads like MLPerf to run smoothly, even after a network partition.

    Max_Open_Files_For_Expired_Client(uint32, range 0 to UINT32_MAX, default 4000)
        Specify the maximum number of open files that an unresponsive client could have, beyond which Ganesha won't keep client intact in memory and expire it. Comes to play if the config Expired_Client_Threshold is not set to ZERO.

    Max_Alive_Time_For_Expired_Client(uint64, range 0 to UINT64_MAX, default 86400)
        Specify the max amount of time till which to keep the unresponsive client in memory, beyond which Ganesha would start reaping and expire it off. Comes to play if the config Expired_Client_Threshold is not set to ZERO.

    Blocking_Locks(bool, default true)
        Whether to allow blocking locks (READW_LT/WRITEW_LT) for NFSv4. When set to false, blocking lock requests will be treated as non-blocking locks (READ_LT/WRITE_LT). This means that if a lock cannot be granted immediately due to a conflict, the server will return NFS4ERR_DENIED instead of blocking the request and waiting for the lock to become available.

  RADOS_KV {}

    ceph_conf(string, no default)
        Connection to ceph cluster, should be file path for ceph configuration.

    userid(path, no default)
        User ID to ceph cluster.

    namespace(string, default NULL)
        RADOS Namespace in which to store objects

    pool(string, default "nfs-ganesha")
        Pool for client info.

    grace_oid(string, default "grace")
        Name of the object containing the rados_cluster grace DB

    nodeid(string, default result of gethostname())
        Unique node identifier within rados_cluster. If nodeid is numeric string, then internally a string is formed like "node<nodeid>" to register membership within rados_cluster. If nodeid is non-numeric string, then it is used as is. If no nodeid present, then hostname (returned via gethostname()) is used for registering the membership

  RADOS_URLS {}

    ceph_conf(string, no default)
        Connection to ceph cluster, should be file path for ceph configuration.

    userid(path, no default)
        User ID to ceph cluster.

    watch_url(url, no default)
        rados:// URL to watch for notifications of config changes. When a notification is received, the server will issue a SIGHUP to itself.

  FSAL_LIST {}

    name(string, no default)
        This allows listing of the FSALs that will be used. This assures that the config blocks for those FSALs will not result in an error if no exports are configured using that FSAL. This parameter takes a list of FSAL names and the parameter may be listed multiple times.
