Hi, [oVirt 3.1, F17] My good old NFS export domain was OK, but getting too small for our needs. Then I unmounted it, created another bigger one somewhere else, and tried to mount the new one. Long things short, the NFS is not mounted and the relevant error is here: Thread-1422222::DEBUG::2013-04-16 10:08:25,973::__init__::1249::Storage.Misc.excCmd::(_log) '/usr/bin/sudo -n /usr/bin/mount -t nfs -o soft,nosharecache,timeo=600,retrans=6 serv-vm-adm7.xxx:/data/vmex /rhev/data-center/mnt/serv-vm-adm7.xxx:_data_vmex' (cwd None) Thread-1422222::ERROR::2013-04-16 10:08:26,047::hsm::1932::Storage.HSM::(connectStorageServer) Could not connect to storageServer Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/vdsm/storage/hsm.py", line 1929, in connectStorageServer File "/usr/share/vdsm/storage/storageServer.py", line 256, in connect File "/usr/share/vdsm/storage/storageServer.py", line 179, in connect File "/usr/share/vdsm/storage/mount.py", line 190, in mount File "/usr/share/vdsm/storage/mount.py", line 206, in _runcmd MountError: (32, ";mount.nfs: rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking.\nmount.nfs: Either use '-o nolock' to keep locks local, or start statd.\nmount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified\n") I confirm trying to manually mount the same from the node, and using the nolock option does work. While googling, I checked the /etc/services : no problem. I don't know what to change, what I did wrong, what to improve? -- Nicolas Ecarnot [Very rare msg from me using HTML and colors...
