Cannot mount NFS via client - can however on the host.

Hello

I have problems with a NFS volume to ESX 4.1 as a data store.

I can mount the NFS volume on the host directly from the command line.

I wasn't able to do it on the command-line for awhile, then I realized that the Firewall setting was there.

Once I change the Firewall setting, I could get directly on the host computer.

But when I try the client - configuration-> data-> add datastore store I get

Call "HostDatastoreSystem.CreateNasDatastore" of object "ha-datastoresystem" on ESX '10.23.43.54' failed.

I also tried to stop and start the nfs and portmap services.

Thank you!

Jay

Hi Jay,.

From the command line, you use "move up" or "esxcfg-nas"? Try to use the other and take a look on the vmkernel log (/ var/log/vmkernel).

  • vCenter Server is a virtual machine, how can I update the host

    I have 2 guests in our environment, I have updated the host of the 2nd, but may not know how to upgrade the 1 host because vcenter server runs as a virtual machine on it. This has me thinking that I don't have the installation program as best as possible.

    Basically, we have 2 Guest boxes and a small box of DC. I don't really want to run vcenter on the dc area. What would be the best soltuong for our environment? Can I keep vcenter as a virtual machine? If Yes, how can I update the host it will run on?

    Thanks in advance everyone... Chris

    I was afraid of that say you that

    Well in this case you may need to update the host manually (see for example http://communities.vmware.com/people/vmroyale/blog/2011/09/15/updating-esxi-5--single-use-esxcli-how-to) even with the need to manually update the host on which vCenter Server is running, I would always run as a virtual machine. There is usually not that many updates.

  • Cannot mount NFS Debian to esxi 5.1 - Please help

    I've tried everything. I'm extremely frustrated on the way this beginner step...

    Idea was the installation, a debian for nfs box and use sharing nfs as a data store in esxi.

    debian installation, Setup nfs-kernel-server

    tried to get through vshpere

    I get the following message is displayed:

    Call "HostDatastoreSystem.CreateNasDatastore" of object "ha-datastoresystem" on ESXi '192.168.1.95' failed.
    192.168.1.97:/esxi has no mounting NFS: the mount request was refused by the NFS server. Verify that the export exists and that the customer is allowed to ride.

    Ive looked everywhere and found very little on this subject... I think that its pretty beginner so no one's going in depth on how to do it step by step... I think that sharing is good and the permissions are good but I don't know how to check via the coast host or client...

    any help would be appreciated... I tried a lot of online how tos with no luck.

    Jon

    What is the absolute path to /esxi?

    You said above "my root" and I assumed to mean that esxi is a directory directly under /, but is that correct? Looks like maybe not.

    Hi cynthiap,

    It looks like that your machine is not able to connect to the adobe activation server. You can give it a shot to see if it helps.

    Open a Finder window. Choose go > go to folder.

    Type/etc (make sure that you are signed in as an administrator).

    Select the hosts file and open it.

    Find all entries that refer to activate.adobe.com and remove them. For example, 127.0.0.1 activate.adobe.com and delete it.

    Save the file and close it. Now, launch the application.

    Or

  • The VM cannot copy files from a network share on the host

    I get the error "unable to copy xyz123: cannot read from the source file or disk.» When you try to copy a file to a shared folder.

    • The shared folder is located on the machine called VM-SERVER, which runs in Workstation 6.0.4. The folder is shared with everyone having full control. Security settings say that DOMAIN\Domain users also have complete control.

    • Any user who connects to any guest VM on VM-SERVER, which is the host of all the VMS in the Organization, can not access the file for copying, although registration to the directory is there (although slow to come). If the same user connects to any other computer on the network, any computer of VM-no-prompt, then he can access the files on the share on VM-SERVER with no problems.

    • VM' are the guest all configured with Bridged networking like they serve other users on the network. I disable the VMWare adapters. I insert the DisableDos key with a value of 1 as indicated by the FAQ, I restart the VM host operating system and the virtual computer guests.

    • VM-SERVER running Windows Server 2003 R2 x 64. It has 2 1 TB SATA drives, and the action in question is physically located on the D: drive.

    • The VM guest OS are XP Sp3, Vista Sp1, Windows Server 2003 R2 x 32 Business.

    • None of these comments VM are able to access the contents of the files on the share on VM-SERVER.

    • All computer virtual guests are able to access shares located on another server, the primary domain controller of the network that is running Windows Server 2003 R2 x 32.

    Accordingly, I'm worried because the concept of the virtual computer for critical business was my decision and up to the exception of this scenario (and a recently resolved USB printing problem) it went well. Unfortunately even a mess can stop production.

    Note that I have read the FAQ and tried the suggestions that seemed to apply.  I also looked in the forums and haven't seen a specific question/answer.  If there is an answer out there and you read this point please make me, orperhaps you have another suggestion?  I am open to all theories and possible solutions.

    And why should he?  A cRIO is really another computer.  You expect your PC to see serial ports to another PC on your network?  No, you wouldn't.

    If you really want the cRIO again the serial port of the PC communication, then you will have to apply on the PC that can communicate with the cRIO, usually over TCP/IP or network stream.

  • LaserJet P1505n printer: How can I change the host name to NPI1BDC68 to meaninful something more?

    My network, a HP LaserJet P1505n printer, host name is set to NPI1BDC68. Is this cable or is there a way for me to change? Trying to solve: manuals were reviewed, Forum questions were searched, google General search conducted. I am running Win XP and a Mac Pro with OS X 10.6.8.

    Well, which took me 10 minutes to solve.  I found the answer on a HP site based in France. (I kinda changed my google query and tried again.)  The site asks on first access, if you wish to continue in English, thankfully.  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01175001

    In short, use Internet Explorer or Safari, go to the IP address of your network printer.  For Win XP users, you can determine the IP address using, start/printers and faxes /(select printer)/properties/ports tab / select new/Configure button/second field printer port to down the IP address shown.

    Once connected to the network printer subsystem, select the Networking tab.  The host name is the first field which can be changed. Enter a new name from 1 to 15 characters.  Tip: He doesn't like spaces. Underscores work well and the new name can be mixed case. Press the button apply at the bottom of the screen when done.  Warning appears that access to the printer may need to be changed if the IP address has been changed.  Acknowledge the warning. Printer goes offline for a few seconds. The page automatically refreshes and the new host name can be confirmed by inspection.
