VsanFileServiceIpConfig

The vSAN File Service IP configuration that is to be bound with the file service instance.

For IPv6 configuration part, see HostIpConfigIpV6AddressConfiguration, only the first element of list ipV6Address will be chosen if multiple IPv6 addresses are configured. And only ipAddress and prefixLength fields are valid.

This structure may be used only with operations rendered under /vsan.

string

fqdn

Optional

The Full Qualified Domain name (FQDN) to be used with IP addresses for the vSAN File Service instance.

Usually it takes the form of 'fs1.example.com'. Please note prior mapping of IP address and FQDN is necessary before configuring vSAN File Service. This may need to update your DNS records. The first component of FQDN is used as netbios name for file service instances, so it must be maximum 15 characters in length.

boolean

isPrimary

Optional

Whether the IP address is served as the primary IP address for the file service.

The file server running with the primary IP will serve as the NFS referral server which may point to the file shares served by other file servers in this cluster. Only one primary IP address is supported in one domain. Default to False.

string

gateway

Required

The default IPv4 gateway address for the file service access point.

The gateway IP must be the same for all the file servers in this domain.

string

affinityLocation

Optional

The affinity location for the file server.

This option is only valid under the stretched cluster setup. If this field is specified, this file service instance will be located in the affinity site when it is available. This file server will failover to the other site when its affinity site is down but will fail back once it is available. If this is a non-stretched cluster, this affinity location will not take effect.
