+.SS Nodemap
+An identity mapping feature that facilitates mapping of client UIDs and GIDs to
+local file system UIDs and GIDs, while maintaining POSIX ownership, permissions,
+and quota.
+
+While the nodemap feature is enabled, all client file system access is subject
+to the nodemap identity mapping policy, which consists of the 'default' catchall
+nodemap, and any user-defined nodemaps. The 'default' nodemap maps all client
+identities to 99:99 (nobody:nobody). Administrators can define nodemaps for a
+range of client NIDs which map identities, and these nodemaps can be flagged as
+ 'trusted' so identities are accepted without translation, as well as flagged
+as 'admin' meaning that root is not squashed for these nodes.
+
+Note: In the current phase of implementation, to use the nodemap functionality
+you only need to enable and define nodemaps on the MDS. The MDSes must also be
+in a nodemap with the admin and trusted flags set. To use quotas with nodemaps,
+you must also use set_param to enable and define nodemaps on the OSS (matching
+what is defined on the MDS). Nodemaps do not currently persist, unless you
+define them with set_param and use the -P flag. Note that there is a hard limit
+to the number of changes you can persist over the lifetime of the file system.
