Manage access to volumes

By default, nobody is allowed access to a volume. Access must be explicitly given once the volume is ready.


Manage access to a volume using the control panel

NFS only allows whitelisted servers and computers to connect. Therefore, you must first grant your servers access to the volume before it can be used.

To grant access to the NFS volume, click on the volume in the File storage overview. Under Details, click Provide access to a server.

Click on the servers that should have access to the volume. A checkmark will appear to the right of the selected servers. Once finished, click Add Selected.

Changing access at a later time

To add or remove access for servers later on, click Actions and then Manage access for the current volume.

Manage access to a volume using the API

Use the filestorage/editvolume endpoint with the optional argument accesslist to manage access to a volume. For general instructions on how to use the API, see Platform → API.
