NFS Server and Client Installation

Gd Day Forum,

I need to configure NFS Server and Client.

What are the software bundle requirements for NFS Server and Client on HP-UX 11.11?

Thanks/cliff

hi,

i wonder if ther is any software of NFS SERVER/Client.

But the normal process of configuring NFS server/client is as follows.

edit file

#vi /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf

NFS_CLIENT=1 -- > for the server which acts a client.

NFS_SERVER=1 -- > for the server which acts as a client.

after this ..

just start the nfs client/server process.

#/sbin/init.d/nfs.client start
#/sbin/init.d/nfs.server start

in the NFS server list the files/FS u want to share.

#vi /etc/exports

/data1

u can mount the same across the NFS clients.
just seach docs.hp.com u will get lots of docs.

hope this helps/

Regards,
Govind.

Hi Cliff,

No extra software is needed. You could check if you have the latest nfs patches.

# cd /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf
change the
NFS_CLIENT=0 into 1
NFS_SERVER=0 into 1
:wq!

# /sbin/init.d/nfs.core start
# /sbin/init.d/nfs.server start
# /sbin/init.d/nfs.client start

Now you can export and import filesystems.

Hi,
You need to check if you are in run-level 3 to start nfs server daemon.
Check the o/p of "who -u" command.
