Inherited Properties

Inherited properties are standard properties that can either be inherited from the project or
explicitly set on the share. The BUI only allows the properties to be inherited all at once, while
the CLI allows for individual properties to be inherited.
Shares that are part of a project can either have local settings for properties, or they can inherit
their settings from the parent project. By default, shares inherit all properties from the project.
If a property is changed on a project, all shares that inherit that property are updated to reflect
the new value. When inherited, all properties have the same value as the parent project, with the
exception of the mountpoint and SMB properties. When inherited, these properties concatenate
the project setting with their own share name.
Mountpoint
The mountpoint property is the location where the filesystem is mounted. This property is only
valid for filesystems.
The following restrictions apply to the mountpoint property:
Must be under /export

Description
Static properties are specified at filesystem or LUN
creation time, but cannot be changed once the share has
been created. These properties control the on-disk data
structures, and include internationalization settings, case
sensitivity, and volume block size.
Project default properties are set on a project, but do not
affect the project itself. They are used to populate the
initial settings when creating a filesystem or LUN, and
can be useful when shares have a common set of non-
inheritable properties. Changing these properties do not
affect existing shares, and the properties can be changed
before or after creating the share.
Filesystem local properties apply only to filesystems,
and are convenience properties for managing the root
directory of the filesystem. They cannot be set on
projects. These access control properties can also be set
by in-band protocol operations.
LUN local properties apply only to LUNs and are not
inherited. They cannot be set on projects.
Custom properties are user-defined properties.
