Feature #61754
openCreate underlying folder on FS when creating an NFS share
0%
Description
When you create a new NFS export through Dashboard, you have to give the an FS folder to attach the share to. It would be great to have at least the option to create the underlying folder when the export is created. Otherwise, the export is effectively useless and can't be mounted.

CephFS recently merged a changed which validated the file system path in cephfs to be a directory (disallowing missing paths, symlinks). Maybe dashboard can do the make directory call to cephfs before creating the export?
(Moving this to dashboard component)
