POSIX clients enable application servers, web servers, and other client nodes and applications to read and write directly and securely to a Data Fabric cluster.
About this task
mapr-loopbacknfs if you need a secure POSIX
client. You can install the mapr-loopbacknfs client on any client node,
even your laptop, if you have Linux installed. A client node must have a supported Linux OS
distribution and must be outside the Data Fabric cluster,
not running mapr-fileserver or other Hadoop services. You cannot install
the Data Fabric POSIX client on a Windows or Mac OS X
machine.As a POSIX client, mapr-loopbacknfs can use any of the 10
POSIX connections provided by the Basic license. If you need more POSIX client
connections, consider upgrading to a Platinum license, as described in Preparing for Installation (HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric POSIX Client).
