[Users] Use Filer for NFS storage

Tue Apr 17 18:25:44 UTC 2012

Using NFS version 3 (on both the Filer and the Host)

NetApp I'm using is FAS3040

I've already went down the "permissions" ave tried the "777" approach.

I can mount the share manually by going to the command line and using the
"mount.nfs" command; just not through the oVirt interface
