Options for Mounting VAST NFS Shares
Overview
This guide provides you with instructions on how to manually mount a VAST NFS share or how to configure /etc/fstab for automatic mounting.
Option 1: Manual Mount
This option will need to be done every time the server is rebooted.
With Vast Drivers
sudo mount -t nfs -o vers=3,nconnect=32,spread_reads,spread_writes,remoteports=<VAST_NFS_IP_RANGE> VASTIP:/VASTSHARE /localpath_on_server
Without Vast Drivers
sudo mount -t nfs -o vers=3,nconnect=16 VASTIP:/VASTSHARE /localpath_on_server
Verify Mount Is Active
df -h
Option 2: /etc/fstab entry
This option is done once and then will auto-mount shares every reboot.
With Vast Drivers
VASTIP:/VASTSHARE /localpath_on_server nfs rw,nconnect=32,nfsvers=3,spread_reads,spread_writes,remoteports=<VAST_NFS_IP_RANGE> 0 0
Without Vast Drivers
VASTIP:/VASTSHARE /localpath_on_server nfs rw,nconnect=16,nfsvers=3 0 0 VASTIP:/data /data nfs rw,nconnect=16,nfsvers=3 0 0
Verify That Entries Were Added Successfully
sudo cat /etc/fstab
Mount New Entries (Only Required the First Time)
sudo mount -a
Verify Mounts Are Active
df -h
