Create SAP NFS Shared File Systems

In this section we will create highly-available NFS shared file systems which will be mounted on each node hosting an SAP instance. Typical file systems to be shared between systems in a highly-available SAP AS ABAP environment include:

• /sapmnt/<SID>
• /usr/sap/trans
• /usr/sap/<SID>/ASCS<InstNum>
• /usr/sap/<SID>/ERS<InstNum>

See Setting up File Systems for a High-Availability System for more details.

The recommended implementation for creating mount targets for the NFS shares varies by cloud platform. Please follow the steps provided in:
