Based on Ubuntu –
Server –
install NFS on Ubuntu –
aptitude -y install nfs-kernel-server
create a “Share”
`mkdir /nfs`
make sure u have at least the following options specified in /etc/exports
/nfs 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash)
Reload NFS Daemon –
exportfs -r
Check to see that u can see it from the remote XenServer DomU (This also check application layer connectivity) –
`showmount -e host`
mount the share from NFS remote Storage to the domU as a client
xe-mount-iso-sr 192.168.0.20:/nfs
Now it should be visible in xenCenter and have its own object ID.
`xe sr-list | grep -B 1 Remote`
