How do you enable NFSv4 on v6.2.4

Recommended Posts

I'm running unRAID v6.2.4 and trying to mount a share via NFSv4 from a linux client but it doesn't seem to be enabled/supported.

 

# mount -t nfs4 nas:/mnt/disk1 /mnt/disk1
mount.nfs4: Protocol not supported

# rpcinfo -s nas
   program version(s) netid(s)                         service     owner
    100000  2,3,4     local,udp,tcp                    portmapper  superuser
    100024  1         tcp,udp                          status      32
    100003  3         udp,tcp                          nfs         superuser
    100021  4,3,1     tcp,udp                          nlockmgr    superuser
    100005  3,2,1     tcp,udp                          mountd      superuser

 

EDIT: So it looks like NFSv4 requires a bit of work to be functional on Slackware.

Assuming that's correct, can a mod/dev look into this? Or correct me in the event I'm wrong.

Hi,

 

I installed a NFS-Ganesha container and can now provide NFS4. Technically it works and it solved the issues I had with NFS3. Nevertheless, it is a bolt-on, which is a work-around for something which should be provided by Unraid in the first place.

 

I can see that there is a lot of work going into Unraid and I really appreciate all the new ideas and fixes being rolled out in a comparably high-frequent manner. I'm glad I came across it months ago and I think it is a very competitive NAS OS. If it wasn't that, I wouldn't use it. It would be good to see NFS4 natively in Unraid one day, so that this 100MB bolt-on work-around container can go, eventually.

 

Regards

 

Carsten

Hi Khadgar,

 

no, I kept the native Unraid NFS v3 share untouched.

 

I've installed the container with a custom Network Type (Custom: eth0) and set a Fixed IP address in the Unraid GUI. The new address must not be used by any other device in your subnet. The one I used is outside the DHCP range of the DHCP server, so collisions later on will be avoided.

 

Regards

 

Carsten
