When creating a new volume, there is no option to create an SMB volume. The volume always defaults to NFSv3 and it cannot be changed. I think we need a protocol option on the azurerm_netapp_volume resource.

Potential Terraform Configuration

resource "azurerm_netapp_volume" "example" {
  name                = "example-netappvolume"
  location            = azurerm_resource_group.example.location
  resource_group_name = azurerm_resource_group.example.name
  account_name     = azurerm_netapp_account.example.name
  pool_name            = azurerm_netapp_pool.example.name
  volume_path        = "my-unique-file-path"
  service_level        = "Premium"
  subnet_id             = azurerm_subnet.example.id
  **protocol                = smb**
  storage_quota_in_gb = 100
}

To accommodate potential future enhancements of ANF I suggest adding a List(String) instead of a simple String to the configuration:

protocols = ["smb"]

Potentially related to #5485

@seb-brack, yes, you're correct, this property is being exposed in the PR you just referenced.

@paulomarquesc

PR 5485 looks like it references NFS though. Can that same property be used to specify that it should be an SMB volume?

[paulomarquesc]

It is for all available protocols, CIFS, NFSv3 and NFSv4.1.

[paulomarquesc]

hi @jknash and @seb-brack just an update here, the PR #5485 that enables this among NFSv4,1 support got merged.

[paulomarquesc]

@tracypholmes, is this closed when the fix is released on v2.1 or can it be closed as soon as it got merged?

Recently ANF was extended to create multi-protocol volumes.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-netapp-files/create-volumes-dual-protocol

This should be added, too. protocols mustn't be filled with a single value then or a new value should be added.

Hi, I would like to see this implememented as well as the multi protocol volumes.
