[Users] NFS Advanced Parameters Greyed out on Existing Storage Domains
So I have read this BZ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=855729 and these related ovirt BZs http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/8110/ http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/8797/ http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/8798/ So forgive me but I am a little confused. I have some existing NFS Storage domains that I was not paying attention and attached without doing any advanced parameters in RHEV 3.1 Now the NFS Advanced Parameters box is greyed out. So now that I have attached these domains I cannot change the advanced nfs option such as change it to Nfs4 from 3 or rsize and wsize? Maybe if I was using upstream oVirt instead of Rhev 3.1 I would be able to make the changes in vdsm.conf and they would be honored? -- Chris Noffsinger

It's the same in oVirt 3.1 and RHEV 3.1, see this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=835543 As long as VDSM is current, you should be able to change the the nfs_mount_options in vdsm.conf to get what you want. You would need to use this route instead of/in addition to the advanced options anyway, because they only allow modification of nfs version, retrans, and timeout and not rsize/wsize. (2 other options are a) modify the db directly (storage_server_connections table) for the available advanced options (not rsize/wsize), or b) attach the sd as posix and specify the mount options, but IMO the vdsm.conf method above is easier and cleaner.) Hope that helps, Greg

Thank you for the speedy clarification. So as I understand this BZ for the errata, the nfs_mount_options were being ignored in vdsm.conf and then after the errata, they are no longer ignored? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=826921 On Wed, Feb 13, 2013 at 8:57 PM, Greg Padgett <gpadgett@redhat.com> wrote:

No problem.

Correct, also note the caveat that if you enable the advanced nfs options in the ui, they will take priority over the vdsm.conf options.
