Question : cannot write to nfs mounted file system on netapp array

cannot write to nfs file system root# chown oracle:dba prodbackup

chown: prodbackup: Not owner


root# ls -al prodbackup

drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Aug 25 15:40 .
drwxr-xr-x 52 root root 1536 Aug 25 15:29 ..
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4096 Aug 25 15:40 .snapshot


root# chmod 777 prodbackup
chmod: WARNING: can't change prodbackup

As root I cannot create a directory on this nfs netapp file system and I want to change the owner/group
Why can't I do this as root?

Answer : cannot write to nfs mounted file system on netapp array

- Connect to NetApp web-interface
   
- Modify NFS exports:

    NFS -> Manage Exports
    Select the volume in question
    Enable: Read-Write Access, Root Access, Security

That should do the trick.
