NFS SERVER SOLARIS HP-UX AIX

SOLARIS

Solaris 9 comes with an NFS server. The first step is to edit the /etc/dfs/dfstab file. We just added this entry: 

share -F nfs -o rw,root=nom-client/Ip -d "share" /share

Start the server:  # svcadm enable svc:/network/nfs/server:default Vérifier # rpcinfo -p localhost | grep nfs     100003    2   udp   2049  nfs     100003    3   udp   2049  nfs     100227    2   udp   2049  nfs_acl     100227    3   udp   2049  nfs_acl     100003    2   tcp   2049  nfs     100003    3   tcp   2049  nfs     100003    4   tcp   2049  nfs     100227    2   tcp   2049  nfs_acl     100227    3   tcp   2049  nfs_acl

On the client side:  root@srv-1 u-1 # mount -t nfs nfs-serverIP:/share /share2 root@srv-1 u-1 # ls /share2

HP-UX

There is a file called dfstab. Open the file in vi editor and add the following line and save it.

1.Syntax:- share -F nfs -o rw -d “shared directory” /shared_directory

2.Prompt:/> share -F nfs -o rw -d “base” /base

The file is read only so we have to change the permissions to read/write using the command:-

1.Prompt:/> chmod 755 /etc/dfs/dfstab

Now we have to stop and start the NFS service on the server for the changes to take effect. Go to the NFS server and type the following commands.

To stop the NFS service type the following at the prompt.

1.Prompt:/> /sbin/init.d/nfs.server stop

To start the NFS service type the following at the prompt.

1.Prompt:/> /sbin/init.d/nfs.server start

Now mount the datasource from the node from which you want to access data on the server.

1.Syntax:- mount -F nfs server:/shared_directory /mount_directory

2.Prompt:/> mount -F nfs 10.168.0.70:/base /mount

Just type "mount" and you can see it mounted. Once you mount the mount directory you can access data in the shared directory on the NFS server. If you want to access data from the other node you have to unmount the directory here and similarly mount it from the other node.

AIX

Edit  /etc/exports (or create if not exist) and add folders to export:

/home/public -access=client1,root=client1

“access” option restrict access to client list,  root is allow to mount the share on client side

start nfsd service:

startsrc -s nfsd

startsrc -s mountd

 check if daemon are running:

Serveur_NFS_AIX # lssrc -s nfsd

Sous-système      Groupe           PID     Etat

 nfsd             nfs              36540   actif

Serveur_NFS_AIX # lssrc -s portmap

Sous-système      Groupe           PID     Etat

 portmap          portmap          3890    actif

Serveur_NFS_AIX # lssrc -s biod

Sous-système      Groupe           PID     Etat

 biod             nfs              6454    actif

 Export all folders

exportfs –a

All should be visible when executing  "exportfs" without option
 Check from client side if rpc service are available:

Client_NFS_Linux # rpcinfo -p $Server_IP | egrep "(mountd|nfs)"

    150001    1   udp  32773  pcnfsd

    150001    2   udp  32773  pcnfsd

    100003    2   udp   2049  nfs

    100003    3   udp   2049  nfs

    100003    2   tcp   2049  nfs

    100003    3   tcp   2049  nfs

    100005    1   udp  41863  mountd

    100005    2   udp  41863  mountd

    100005    3   udp  41863  mountd

    100005    1   tcp  41489  mountd

    100005    2   tcp  41489  mountd

    100005    3   tcp  41489  mountd

 the share should be available :

Client_NFS_Linux # showmount -e $IP_Serveur

Export list for $SERVER_IP:

/home/public (everyone)

How to mount the share :

 At aix server, I use command:
mount -o proto=udp <ip server nfs>:/mnt/testdataaixserver /mnt/testdatalinuxclient
