Add or remove NetApp Volumes on projects

Attaching a NetApp Volume to a project ensures data safety for use in your apps, launchers, workspaces, or jobs. It also enables shared storage among multiple users and simplifies data backup. The workspace can still operate even when it stops or restarts. You’ll need a role that allows you to see or work with a NetApp Volume to attach it to a project. If you have the Reader role, you can still attach the NetApp Volume, but you can only view the data.

Attach NetApp Volumes to workspaces or jobs

Attaching NetApp Volumes to your apps, launchers, workspaces, or jobs guarantees data safety. You can select these upon starting. Apps are available as read-write or read-only based on the permissions of the App owner.

  • Users with the Volume Owner or Editor role may attach the volumes assigned to the project to workspaces or jobs within that project in read-write mode.

  • Users with the Reader role should be able to attach NetApp Volumes currently assigned to the project to workspaces or jobs within that project in read-only mode.

All available and accessible volumes and snapshots should be mounted only when requested.
