Configuring tenant vFiler mappings

Tenant vFiler mappings associate tenants with NetApp vFiler storage resources. You can map a vFiler to multiple tenants, but you can create only one vFiler mapping per tenant. When you delete or edit a tenant vFiler mapping, only the mapping is changed — the provisioned storage itself is not altered. From the Storage category of the Providers workspace you can create, modify, and delete tenant vFiler mappings.
