The directory on the HPSS servers for the configuration files is: TBD
With changing to this directory the automount will be active.
The mount will be unmounted after 3 minutes without access.

Configuration on the HPA server (172.18.95.59)

  • the directory for the config files was created: /export/hpa
  • The file /etc/exports was modified:
      /export/hpa 172.18.95.0/22(rw,no_subtree_check,no_acl,no_root_squash)
  • nfs-utils was updated with yum
  • nfs was startetd with systemctl start nfs.service


NFS v3 support

Because RH systems run NFS Version 4 by default the mount on the client must be different as compared to NFS 3 mount. NFS v4 uses the 'root' directory concept and therefore mount commands must mount the exported 'root'. With the /etc/exports file above

  • nfs v3 : mount -o nfsvers=3 <server>:/export/hpa /mnt
  • nfs v4 : mount -o nfsvers=4 <server>:/ /mnt

Also rpcbind has to be run on the v3 server

 service rpcbind start
