Mounting NFS Volumes

Hey,
I've just got my self a NAS box and setup a couple of NFS shares on it....
What i'm looking for is advice on how to mount these share on my macs?
I'd like to be able to use one to use timemachine for backup if this is possible?
Thanks
Denis

I am having the same issue. I can see the nfs mounted shares through the terminal but the finder does not see them.
I think in 10.3 you could specify which files were visible by the finder creating a .hidden file.

  • No longer mount NFS volumes with 2010.q1 release:

    Has anyone else seen this? I can no longer mount any of my NFS volumes with root squash since upgrading to 2010.q1. I have a ticket open with Sun (72644622), but everyone is apparently off/away.
    Before they all went off, Sun Eng. suggested setting max supported NFS version to 3, but this of course did not work. Hosts trying to mount the volumes error out with:
    call_verify: server HOST_IP_HERE requires stronger authentication.
    I have double checked that the atuh is set to sys (not krb), but it looks like the nfsd is not respecting this.
    Of course this has knocked all our VMware mounts offline as well, and using krb for these is out of the question....
    Had to update to support the new FC card...which works great...but me needs me nfs shares....
    Fishworks doods, stop yelling at drives and help a brother out ;)

    I wish I could tell you, but it seems we lost a CIM card. Worse yet, this failure was completely SILENT. Not a single "problem" listed in the logs. However, when attaching another J4400, I noticed an alarm LED on the failed CIM and verified that the storage was only seen by 1 path. Kind of disconcerting that availability could be reduced significantly without so much as an email.
    I'll let you know if we can get to the new release later this week.

  • Old NFS Volumes are a problem in finder

    Hi,
    I mount an nfs volume and work on files that are saved on it. I do this manually in finder->Go->Connect to server
    Sometimes it gets disconnected so I do that again, but there is a problem. The previous volume still exists in the directory. You can't access anything there or save anything there and when you re connect you get a new volume /volumes/server-1 or /volumes/server-2 or whatever comes next.
    This is a problem, because any shortcuts don't work when this -n is appended to the server name, and when you try to save documents you have been working on, they won't save.
    Can anyone suggest how to maybe automate the removal of these old entries in the directory. Any advice is appreciated.

    Well, the lookup (which is dont via the findByPrimaryKey) is done to populate the fields in the entity. If, as you say, the mapping don't match (ie, a String value from the db trying to be put into a Long object) you will most likely get some error. The error message might not be that explicit, but you obviously MUST either change the mapping type or convert the column to what the mapping type says.
    Cheers

  • HT1533 how to mount a volume on a mac

    how to mount a volume on a mac

    Local direct-connect mounts via USB, Firewire, SDXC card, optical media, etc., will be automounted immediately provided that the filesystem of the attached media is recognized, such as Apple HFS, MS FAT, HSFS and other optical media formats. A problematic but common format is NTFS, default for modern Windows systems, since MacOS X does not handle it by default and will need third-party additions to be used, especially if password-protected.
    Remote mounts such as Windows SMB shares or Unix NFS volumes need to be manually mounted. In the Finder's menus, see the Go/Connect to server... option.

  • Mount network volume: different users same credentials, see different shares

    A set of network volumes on a NAS need to periodically be backed up to a local USB disk. Manually, I can mount most shares (from a Finder window). In a shell script I can list all files due (find) and use that list for backing up to a local USB volume (cpio). So far so good. However, I need to mount these network volumes first. The mount command doesn't seem to work for me.
    How do I mount a network volume in a shell script?
    Also I noticed that if under fast user switching user A logs in with credentials uName and uPassword, the NAS shows 6 shares to choose from. When user B on the same machine logs in with the same credentials uName and uPassword, only 5 shares are visible and one is not shown. It looks as if the credentials do not uniquely determine the volumes offered for mounting. Also, when user B mounts a share, it appears to be owned by user A (who is logged in but has not mounted any share on the NAS) rather than owned by B or by uName...
    How do I mount this volume as user uName rather than A or B?
    How can one uniquely determine the identity of the volume? Network volumes don't show UUIDs and the name given in the /Volume/ folder can change, as is discussed in message 11871367.

    I just checked: after a reboot, user A logs in (automatic login enabled), user A logs out, user B logs in, ls -a /Volumes only shows local HD and a USB HD. No network mounts there.
    In the finder window, the NAS shows up on the left. Clicking it and entering credentials uName, uPassword, a list of five, not 6, items is offered for mounting. So your options 1 and 4 are then ruled out, unless an alias made by user A and copied to user B's home folder would still link to user A's mounting options.
    Actually, only option 1 is ruled out. That Finder list is simply not reliable. It is likely cached somewhere and could be restored by deleting some hidden preference file. It regularly causes people to freak out when they see some sharepoint listed on a network that they have long since left.
    If you did Go > Connect to Server in the Finder and typed in the location, you could still create an alias.
    Once mounted one of 5 shares as uName with uPassword, an ls -al /Volumes shows the local drives and
    drwx------@ 11 B staff <date> sharename
    and all folders in sharename also show B:staff as user:group. I find that strange, as I did not log in to the share with credentials B, but with credentials uName. Anyhow.
    The uName user is for the network share. When MacOS X mounts that, it gives it permissions appropriate for the user who did the mounting. If you did an NFS mount as root, the server would handle permissions via UNIX uid and gid. I'm really not familiar with the details of AFP.
    As I read in a post about autoFS that 'cd /Volume/theHiddenShare' should magically mount that share, I gave it a shot. Alas, '/Volumes/theHiddenShare: No such file or directory'. Same long shot in the dark in the 'Go/Connect to' dialog gave 'The folder cannot be found'. Not surprisingly, I suppose.
    Yes. That has to be setup
    Here is what I've done to my /etc/auto_home:
    # Automounter map for /home
    #+auto_home     # Use directory service
    # Get /home records synthesized from user records
    #+/usr/libexec/od_user_homes
    myserver.org -allow_other,reconnect,fstype=sshfs [email protected]:/home/me_remote
    I'm not on a big network, so I've disabled the system functionality by commenting out "+auto_home" and "+/usr/libexec/od_user_homes". Now, the system doesn't manage /home and I am free to do with it what I want. This will mount the path "/home/myserver.org" connected to the "me_remote" user on "myserver.org". I'm using the funky MacFUSE sshfs filesystem. Your AFP file system should work much better. Your line would look something like this:
    drive5 -fstype=afp uUser@MyLocalServer:/theHiddenShare
    Run "automount -vc" to reset your automount system.
    Next use Finder Go > Connect to Server and type in "afp://uUser@MyLocalServer:/theHiddenShare".
    You want to mount the drive once so that you can store uPassword in your keychain.
    Now unmount the drive.
    The Finder mounts all go into /Volumes and, as you have discovered, can get themselves confused. This automount will be at "/home/drive5". All you have to do is enter that folder in the Finder and it will be automatically mounted. If you haven't used it for a while, it will be unmounted automatically.
    You may have to play around with this a little. I don't have any network AFP share that I need to mount on a regular basis, so those parameters may need to be adjusted somewhat.

  • Mounting NFS Drive limitations when using the GUI?

    I mounted a NFS drive in the "Workgroup Manager" and I can't turn on Enable Access Control Lists on this volume" (ACL). Because I don't have ACL on I can't share this volume well using Samba.
    When trying to turn ACL on I get this error: "kErrorChangingACLState"
    However; if I go under the hood of OSX, and mount the NFS volume via Terminal I inherited ACL support. I am not sure if this is dangerous but I can now share the NFS file structure and Samba happily lets the proper people access.
    It seems that ACL is very important to have Windows allow Group access. POSIX support only lets "Everyone" and "User" access. It seems to know that the files is part of the correct group but Windows won't let you on.
    Does anyone know why one can't force the NFS volume in the GUI to have ACL support?

    Thanks cjlim for chiming in.
    This is coming from a Nokia representative in one Disqus forum:
    We've seen many people from US asking for this feature. Right now you can get a direction list before starting your journey, with HERE Maps. From there you can then launch HERE Drive. In HERE Drive you have a map instead, which should show you where it is going to take you. Otherwise we believe that reading a direction list while driving is highly distracting and unsafe.
    Will the lack of compass affect entering trip itinerary in HERE Maps before launching HERE Drive+?

  • A better way to make Automator mount a volume?

    I made an Automator application, using the Record function, to mount a volume on a drive connected to my Mini. I also made a similar one to eject it. I use them as Calendar-triggered events as part of my backup scheme.
    They work well ... until I restart the Mini, when occasionally my two connected drives will mount in a different order. What happens then is that the sequence of mouse clicks recorded in Automator don’t find the correct volume.
    I wonder if there’s a better way to automate the mounting of a currently ejected disc (and later its ejection). Automator, as far as I can see, does not have the actions I need. It has Ask For/Connect to/Get specified Servers, but they seem only to be for network-connected stuff.
    Anyone know a better way?

    Welcome to Unix. 
    The key part of that shell script code is the test for the existence of the mount point (if [ -e /Volumes/dbamp ]), followed by a conditional block that — in the "else" section involved when the mount point wasn't found — creates it, and then mounts an AFP file system on that mount point.  Most of the rest of the baggage in that script is used to get the mysqldump database dumps over onto the target disk, once it's been mounted.
    Here's a very quick overview of the basics of scripting , Apple's introduction to the command line manual, there's a generic bash intro (which is good, but doesn't line up exactly with how bash is implemented on OS X) and O'Reilly has some reasonable books on bash and bash scripting.  Once you know and are comfortable with the basics, there are advanced bash guides available.

  • Share a mounted AFP volume across user accounts on the same computer

    Hi all,
    I have a Mac Mini with several attached disks (HFS+). I'm using it as a file server, to share these disks over my home network. I'm mounting these as AFP server volumes on a second computer (MacBook Pro). This all works fine. Both are running MacOS 10.6.2.
    The problem is that my MacBook Pro has two user accounts, and when I mount AFP volumes under one user, the other user can't access them. It seems that mounted AFP volumes are assigned read/write permissions for only the user that mounted them.
    Ideally, I'd like to mount a volume once, and have it accessible from both user accounts. I've tried changing permissions in the AFP volume's Get Info window, but the changes don't take effect.
    Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks!!

  • Unable to mount XSAN volume on client workstation

    We just reimaged one of our machines and we are now unable to mount the xsan volume. Originally when the machine hooked up the IP was wrong and the XSAN couldn't see it. This has been fixed and the XSAN sees it now and it is authenticated, but when we try to mount the volume we get this error

  • ZFS tries to mount SAN volume before ISCSI is running

    I am running Solaris 10 x86 U7. It is actually a VMWare guest (ESX4) on a Sun X4170 server- although I do not believe that that is relevant. I have a Sun 2510 iSCSI SAN appliance. I have an iSCSI volume with a ZFS Pool that is mounted on the server. All was fine until yesterday when I installed the following patches:
    142934-02 SunOS 5.10_x86: failsafe patch
    142910-17 SunOS 5.10_x86: kernel patch
    144489-02 SunOS 5.10_x86: kernel patch
    142912-01 (as a dependency requirement for one of the others.)
    I had installed the patches in run level 1 , then switched to run level S to allow the patch install to finish.
    Now, when I restart the zfs volume on the san is marked as off line. the /var/adm/messages shows the following
    Nov 7 00:26:30 hostnameiscsi: [ID 114404 kern.notice] NOTICE: iscsi discovery failure - SendTargets (ip.ad.dr.ess)
    I can mount the SAN ZFS pool with
    #zpool clear ZFSPOOL1
    #zfs mount -a
    For iscsi device discovery, I am using send targets (not static or iSNS.) I am not using CHAP authentication.
    It seems to be me this may merely be a timing in services and not fundamentally an iscsi issue. Can I tell the OS to wait for a minute after starting iscsi service before continuing with zfs mount and autofs shares? Can I tell the OS to delay mounting non OS zfs pools?
    Thanks

    Here is what I tried. Installed Batchmod and Xupport on each of internal system disk, backup internal system disk and external system disk. Batchmod could not find the folders automount or Network.
    Booting from external disk, I made hidden files visible using Xupport, then deleted automount > Servers, automount > Static on internal disk and backup disk. The folder Network had no files or folder named "Server". Booting from internal disk, the desktop tried to mount server volumes. Examining the internal disk automount folder showed aliases for "Servers" and "static". Get Info said they pointed to originals "Servers" and "static" in folder /automount but these items do not appear in the Finder.
    Sometimes icons, not aliases, for "Network", "Servers", and "static" appear on all three desktops on login. Trying to eject these icons by dragging to Trash or highlighting and clicking File > Eject has no effect. Examining Users > Username > Desktop does not show these items. Sometimes ".DS_Store" appears on desktop and in folder Users > Username > Desktop.
    Next I deleted user accounts so that all system disks are single user. Booted up on External disk and deleted automount > Servers, automount > Static on internal disk and internal backup disk or their aliases, whichever appeared in Finder. Booting up on internal disk results in... desktop trying to mount server volumes.
    Will try an archive and install on internal disk.

  • Backup Controller cannot mount XSAN Volume

    Hi Guys,
    I've really have a big problem regarding the XSAN that I've just setup: There are 3 Xserves connected to the SAN - one for the main controller, one for backup and another one for fileserver. After a fresh install of the Leopard Server 10.5.6 on all servers and fresh install of Xsan 2.0 updated to 2.1.1, I tried creating an SAN from the main controller, I added first the main and backup controllers, authenticated them properly and was successful adding them to the SAN. After this, I created the volume and it mounted properly on the main controller. What I don't understand is that whenever I try to mount the volume to the backup controller, it is saying unable to mount and even I tried forcing it to mount in terminal using the command xsanctl mount VOLNAME, its giving me an error saying
    "unable to mount volume, Cannot mount XSAN volume error code: 5"
    What is that error message? When I tried typing cvadmin to the main controller, it only gave me this message:
    Main Controller:
    File System Services (* indicates service is in control of FS)
    1>*XSAN[0] located on 10.0.0.101:49930 (pid 317)
    Select FSM "XSAN"
    When I type the same cvadmin to the backup controller, it gave me this message:
    Backup Controller:
    File System Service (* indicates service is in control of FS)
    1> XSAN[1] located on 10.0.0.102:50384 (pid 331)
    No FSSs are active
    Select FSM "none"
    What is happening? both servers are having a DNS name. Before I created the SAN, from the authenticate window, the server name is just the IP address of the Ethernet 0 (first ethernet port). Now whenever I fire up Xsan Admin, both controllers are now offline and if you authenticate them, the server name info suddenly changed from IP address to a DNS Name (e.g. from 194.170.34.12, changed to hct-mdc.ad.hct.ac.ae) which even if I type my admin username and password cannot authenticate saying "server not found in network"
    I really don't know now what to do and they need to fix the issue asap.
    I would really appreciate your help guys!
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I am accessing this WS via ARD, so public LAN is definitely there. I have not connected the "Xsan" network (but it should be no problems communicating the Xsan traffic over this single LAN connection).
    With the firewall, the situation is more strange. When I try to open the Firewall settings on Sharing, there is a dialog "Other firewall software is running on this computer." I googled this and it seems that this was a common problem on 10.3. They suggest to delete com.apple.sharing.firewall.plist file but it is not there on 10.4.
    "sudo ipfw list" shows this:
    00001 allow udp from any 626 to any dst-port 626
    65535 allow ip from any to any
    Any ideas on how to make Firewall behave as expected? I will try to reinstall if I don't receive a reply.
    Thanks.

  • Virt-install cannot mount nfs directory

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to use ovms but I cannot create any virtual machine.
    I successfully installed OVMS; I disabled iptables to avoid network problems.
    I created a dvd from Oracle Unbreakable EL 5.0 cds on a different machine.
    The dvd image is shared by a linux CentOS box. The ISO image is inside /opt/tmp_os_isos/50 so I did
    service nfs start
    mkdir /mnt/dvd50
    chmod a+rwx /mnt/dvd50
    mount -o ro,loop /opt/tmp_os_isos/50/Enterprise-R5-GA-Server-i386-dvd.iso /mnt/dvd50/
    exportfs *:/mnt/dvd50
    and on the ovms server I did:
    [root@ovms ~]# virt-install
    What is the name of your virtual machine? giallo2
    How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)? 512
    What would you like to use as the disk (path)? /virtpcs/dischi/giallo
    How large would you like the disk (/virtpcs/dischi/giallo2) to be (in gigabytes)? 30
    Would you like to enable graphics support? (yes or no) no
    What is the install location? nfs:10.10.10.242:/mnt/dvd50
    And I always end up with the error
    That directory could not be mounted from the server.
    If I try to run
    [root@ovms ~]# mount.nfs 10.10.10.242:/mnt/dvd50 /mnt/50
    it works!
    I also tried to build adifferent dvd iso, or to uso a OEL 4.4 dvd iso (taken from an original working oracle dvd) but I always end up with the same error
    Where am I wrong?
    thanks, andrea

    I realized this problem was somehow related with the ovms installation: the pc I installed ovms on has two network card; when I installed ovms I configured eth0 via DHCP (eth0 is linked to the office network and to internet) and I configured eth1 with a static IP (eth 1 is connected to a "private" network made by 2 more pc).
    I also choosed to manage ovnms via eth1 (the network card witch has a statis ip), and everything regardind ovms has always been done via eth1.
    Now I reinstalled ovms and I choosed to manage it via eth0 (si I put a static ip address on eth0) and everything seems working: I'm just installing OEL5.0 via nfs without any problem (I hope... :-) )
