New Trident and K8s user here! Wanted to ask if it's possible to mount volumes using a LIF that is on a node that owns the volumes? I've been looking at the samples backends but do not see anything. Any help would be great!
#Multiple LIFs, possible to mount nfs to IP on same node as vol?

@wide sleet , when you create a Trident Backend, you can set the DataLIF optional parameter. From now on, PVC will only be mounted from that IP@
if you do not set it, Trident will just pick one DataLIF randomly, and stick with it.
or maybe I don't understand the question 😉
if you want volumes to be mounted only through the local LIF, maybe you can create multiple backends towards the same SVM:
- Backend1 = SVMDATA + DATALIF_Node1 + AGGR_Node1
- Backend2 = SVMDATA + DATALIF_Node2 + AGGR_Node2

looking for direct/IO. If the svm has two node, each node has 1 data lif, he wants a vol on node 1 to be served on a lif on node 1 and a vol on node 2 to be served on a LIF on node 2. Does not look like a way to specify. Looking at the the docs, the best bet is to use a DNS entry for multiple DataLIF IPs and do round-robin.
