Last Updated:Dec 03, 2025

Creates an export directory for a protocol service.

Operation description

  • This operation is available only to Cloud Parallel File Storage (CPFS) file systems.

  • Prerequisites

    A protocol service is created.

  • Others

    • The virtual private cloud (VPC) CIDR block of the export directory for the protocol service cannot overlap with the VPC CIDR block of the file system.
    • The VPC CIDR blocks of multiple export directories of a protocol service cannot overlap.
    • You can create a maximum of 10 export directories for a protocol service.
    • A protocol service can use a maximum of 32 IP addresses that are allocated by a specified vSwitch. Make sure that the vSwitch can provide sufficient IP addresses.

Debugging

You can run this interface directly in OpenAPI Explorer, saving you the trouble of calculating signatures. After running successfully, OpenAPI Explorer can automatically generate SDK code samples.

Request parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescriptionExample
ProtocolServiceIdstringYes

The ID of the protocol service.

ptc-123****
FileSystemIdstringYes

The ID of the file system.

cpfs-123****
VpcIdstringYes

The VPC ID of the export directory for the protocol service.

vpc-123****
VSwitchIdstringYes

The vSwitch ID of the export directory for the protocol service.

vsw-123****
FsetIdstringNo

The ID of the fileset that you want to export.

Limits:

  • The fileset already exists.
  • You can create only one export directory for a fileset.
  • You can specify either a fileset or a path.
fset-123****
PathstringNo

The path of the CPFS directory that you want to export.

Limits:

  • The directory already exists in the CPFS file system.
  • You can create only one export directory for a directory.
  • You can specify either a fileset or a path.

Format:

  • The path must be 1 to 1,024 characters in length.
  • The path must be encoded in UTF-8.
  • The path must start and end with a forward slash (/). The root directory is /.
/
AccessGroupNamestringNo

The name of the permission group.

Default value: DEFAULT_VPC_GROUP_NAME.

DEFAULT_VPC_GROUP_NAME
DescriptionstringNo

The description of the export directory for the protocol service. The name of the export directory appears in the console.

Limits:

  • The description must be 2 to 128 characters in length.
  • The description must start with a letter but cannot start with http:// or https://.
  • The description can contain letters, digits, colons (:), underscores (_), and hyphens (-).
test
ClientTokenstringNo

The client token that is used to ensure the idempotence of the request. You can use the client to generate the token, but you must make sure that the token is unique among different requests.

The token can contain only ASCII characters and cannot exceed 64 characters in length. For more information, see How do I ensure the idempotence?

Note If you do not specify this parameter, the system automatically uses the request ID as the client token. The request ID may be different for each request.
473469C7-AA6F-4DC5-B3DB-A3DC0DE3****
DryRunbooleanNo

Specifies whether to perform a dry run. The dry run checks parameter validity and prerequisites. The dry run does not create an export directory or incur fees.

Valid values:

  • true: performs a dry run. The system checks the request format, service limits, prerequisites, and whether the required parameters are specified. If the request fails the dry run, an error message is returned. If the request passes the dry run, the HTTP status code 200 is returned. No value is returned for the ExportId parameter.
  • false (default): performs a dry run and sends the request. If the request passes the dry run, an export directory is created.
