5.2. Configuring an NFS share

Procedure

1. On both nodes in the cluster, create the /nfsshare directory.

   # mkdir /nfsshare

2. On one node in the cluster, perform the following procedure.

   1. Ensure that the logical volume you you created in Configuring an LVM volume with an XFS file system in a Pacemaker cluster is activated, then mount the file system you created on the logical volume on the /nfsshare directory.

      [root@z1 ~]# lvchange -ay my_vg/my_lv
      [root@z1 ~]# mount /dev/my_vg/my_lv /nfsshare

   2. Create an exports directory tree on the /nfsshare directory.

      [root@z1 ~]# mkdir -p /nfsshare/exports
      [root@z1 ~]# mkdir -p /nfsshare/exports/export1
      [root@z1 ~]# mkdir -p /nfsshare/exports/export2

   3. Place files in the exports directory for the NFS clients to access. For this example, we are creating test files named clientdatafile1 and clientdatafile2.

      [root@z1 ~]# touch /nfsshare/exports/export1/clientdatafile1
      [root@z1 ~]# touch /nfsshare/exports/export2/clientdatafile2

   4. Unmount the file system and deactivate the LVM volume group.

      [root@z1 ~]# umount /dev/my_vg/my_lv
      [root@z1 ~]# vgchange -an my_vg
