NFS Version Upgrades:
vSphere does not support automatic datastore conversions from NFS version 3 to NFS 4.1. If you want to upgrade your NFS 3 datastore, the following options are available:
1. You can create a new NFS 4.1 datastore, and then use Storage vMotion to migrate virtual machines from the old
datastore to the new one.
2. Use conversion methods provided by your NFS storage server. For more information, contact your storage vendor.
· 3. Unmount from one version and then mount as the other.
