As always, first thing is first ;) \u00a0Make sure you have the correct kernel options enabled.<\/p>\n
File systems --->\r\n [*] Dnotify support\r\n [*] Network File Systems --->\r\n <*> NFS client support\r\n <*> NFS client support for NFS version 4\r\n [*] NFS client support for NFSv4.1\r\n <*> NFS server support\r\n [*] NFS server support for NFS version 4\r\n [*] NFSv4.1 server support for Parallel NFS (pNFS)<\/pre>\nDepending on other options enabled in the kernel, version 3 may be auto selected and non-optional.<\/p>\n
Once compiled and built. \u00a0We can install the required apps. \u00a0Make sure you enable to required USE flags.<\/p>\n
emerge -av net-fs\/nfs-utils\r\n\r\nThese are the packages that would be merged, in order:\r\n\r\nCalculating dependencies... done!\r\n[ebuild R ~] net-fs\/nfs-utils-2.1.1::gentoo USE=\"libmount nfsidmap nfsv4 nfsv41 tcpd uuid -caps -ipv6 -kerberos -nfsdcld (-selinux)\"<\/pre>\nSERVER:<\/strong><\/h1>\n
Now we'll create the directory structure. \u00a0The first line is the virtual root followed by each filesystem.<\/p>\n
mkdir \/export\r\nmkdir \/export\/videos\r\nmkdir \/export\/music<\/pre>\nNow to add the fstab entries. \u00a0I've set the ro<\/span> option as I only want the local server to write.<\/p>\n
\/NAS\/Videos \/export\/videos none bind,ro 0 0\r\n\/NAS\/Music \/export\/music none bind,ro 0 0<\/pre>\nThen mount them.<\/p>\n
mount -a<\/pre>\nOn to the exports config.<\/p>\n
vi \/etc\/exports<\/pre>\n# \/etc\/exports: NFS file systems being exported. See exports(5).\r\n\r\n\/export <client hostname>(insecure,rw,sync,no_subtree_check,crossmnt,fsid=0)\r\n\/export\/videos <client hostname>(insecure,ro,sync,no_subtree_check,crossmnt)\r\n\/export\/music <client hostname>(insecure,ro,sync,no_subtree_check,crossmnt)<\/pre>\nJust one more little tweak. \u00a0Cat the following file.<\/p>\n
# cat \/proc\/fs\/nfsd\/nfsv4recoverydir\r\n\/var\/lib\/nfs\/v4recovery<\/pre>\nNow create the directory.<\/p>\n
mkdir \/var\/lib\/nfs\/v4recovery<\/pre>\nWithout this, there will be errors in the syslog and potentially erratic performance on the client(s).<\/p>\n
We're using systemd for this, so let's start the daemons.<\/p>\n
systemctl start rpcbind nfs-server<\/pre>\nAnd enable at boot.<\/p>\n
systemctl enable rpcbind nfs-server<\/pre>\nCLIENT:<\/h1>\n
For systemd, the nfs-client<\/span> service will be started automatically when systemd detects that exported directories are being mounted.<\/p>\n
So let's mount!<\/p>\n
mount <server hostname>:\/music \/music\r\nmount <server hostname>:\/videos \/videos<\/pre>\nTo make persistent, add the following:<\/p>\n
<server hostname>:\/videos \/mnt\/videos nfs4 ro,auto,_netdev,noexec 0 0\r\n<server hostname>:\/music\/ \/mnt\/music nfs4 ro,auto,_netdev,noexec 0 0<\/pre>\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
