• ip-address is the IP address for the Filestore instance.
• file-share is the name of the file share on the instance.
• mount-point-directory is the path you want to map the Filestore file share to.
• options are the NFS mount options. We recommend keeping the default NFS mount options, with the following exceptions:
  • For automounting, we recommend specifying -o tcp to reduce the latency when mounting and unmounting.
  • If you are mounting a zonal (previously high scale SSD) instance to a client VM that’s running Linux kernel version 5.3+, consider specifying the nconnect mount option for increased NFS performance. We recommend specifying up to 7 connections for zonal tier and up to 2 connections for the regional and enterprise tier. In general, the larger the file share capacity and the fewer the connecting client VMs, the more performance you gain by specifying additional connections with nconnect.
• _netdev may be added to the mount option string of the unit, which forces systemd to consider the mount unit a network mountk
