NFSMAPID(8) Maintenance Commands and Procedures NFSMAPID(8)
NAME
nfsmapid - NFS user and group id mapping daemon
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/nfs/nfsmapidDESCRIPTION
The
nfsmapid daemon maps to and from NFS version 4
owner and
owner_group identification attributes and local UID and GID numbers used by both the
NFS version 4 client and server.
nfsmapid uses the
passwd and
group entries in the
/etc/nsswitch.conf file
to direct how it performs the mappings.
The
nfsmapid daemon has no external, customer-accessible interfaces. You
can, however, administratively configure
nfsmapid in one of the following
ways:
+o Set the
nfsmapid_domain property for the
nfs protocol using
sharectl(8).
+o Specify the
_nfsv4idmapdomain DNS resource record.

The
nfsmapid service is managed by the service management facility,
smf(7),
under the service identifier:
svc:/network/nfs/mapid
Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or
requesting restart, can be performed using
svcadm(8). The service's status
can be queried using the
svcs(1) command.
If it is disabled, it will be enabled by
mount_nfs(8),
share_nfs(8), and
automountd(8), unless its
application/
auto_enable property is set to
false.
nfsmapid caches a user's UID and GID. If a user subsequently changes a UID
or GID, using one of the utilities listed below, the
nfsmapid cache becomes
stale. At this point, any NFS operation that gets or set attributes will
result in the exchange of this stale information. To resolve this
situation, restart
nfsmapid, as follows:
# svcadm restart svc:/network/nfs/mapid:default
The utilities that allow you to change UID and GID are:
