Issue

Having created an ontap-nas type backend to create the PVC for a pod, the pod is unable to create a fifo device file on the NFS mount.
 
When attempting to do so manually inside the pod's shell as the pod's user, there is an "Permission denied" error:
bash-4.4$ mkfifo cola
mkfifo: cannot create fifo 'cola': Permission denied
