In this challenge, you will configure Network Filesystem Storage (NFS) storage on your vSphere hosts. First, you will configure a new virtual switch for NFS storage traffic, and then you will add an NFS datastore to a host. Next, you will mount an ISO image from the NFS datastore on a virtual machine, and then you will access the files. Finally, you will add an additional host to the existing NFS datastore, and then you will unmount an NFS datastore from a host. Note: Once you begin the challenge lab, you will not be able to pause, save, or exit and then return to your challenge lab. Please ensure that you have set aside enough time to complete the challenge lab before you start.
