If you like to mount an NFS share to Parallels Server Bare Metal Host (for example to store virtual machines' files on there) you would need to perform the following sequence of actions:1. Edit file /etc/fstab and add a line like:
<server>:/<share> /<mountpoint> nfs defaults,noatime,nolock 1 2
where <server> is a hostname or IP of the remote server
<share> is a name of the folder located on this server to be mounted as NFS
<mountpoint> is a destination directory on Parallels Server Bare Metal Host
For example:
192.168.5.5:/nfsfolder /var/parallels nfs defaults,noatime,nolock 1 2
2. Configure the service 'netfs' to start automatically with the command:
# chkconfig --levels 2345 netfs on
This should make the system to mount all network shares like NFS, SMB/CIFS, etc. Additionally, the services like 'portmap' and 'nfslock' might be configured to run the same way.
3. Start 'netfs' service or reboot the whole server to apply changes:
# service netfs start
4. Check if the share got mounted:
# mount
/dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw)
192.168.5.5:/nfsfolder on /var/parallels type nfs (rw,noatime,addr=192.168.5.5)
5. If the mount succeeded you are ready to use the NFS share.
