Thanks Perderabo;
Your solution makes sense, but i'm not sure if i understand this part & don't know why do we need to export a file system, and which one would be in a read only mode. could you please explain in more details this part:
" Then it can export a filesystem via NFS to other boxes in readonly mode."
Thanks
Katkota
