NFS Export Setup Guide for Ubuntu EC2
This guide covers the steps to set up NFS export to share a directory from an Ubuntu server running on EC2.
Steps
-
Start an Ubuntu EC2 instance and check the security group to make sure that the NFS port on this server is open for connection from your NFS client servers.
-
Install NFS server.
$ sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server
-
Mount your objectivefs filesystem (e.g. on /ofs).
$ sudo mount.objectivefs <your filesystem> /ofs
-
In
/etc/exports
, add the following line wheredirectory
is the directory you would like to share andip address
is the ip address of the NFS client machines.
Example to allow the NFS client at 10.0.0.100 to mount<directory> <ip addr>(rw,fsid=<unique id>,no_subtree_check,mp,async)
/ofs
:/ofs 10.0.0.100(rw,fsid=222,no_subtree_check,mp,async)
-
In
/etc/default/nfs-kernel-server
, increase the number of threads on the NFS server.RPCNFSDCOUNT=<number of threads> # e.g. 64
-
Restart the service.
$ sudo service nfs-kernel-server restart $ sudo service idmapd restart # you may also need to restart idmap
