mounting file system failed

[Bigredcherokee]

mount: mounting file system for 192.168.13.31 failed /images/ on /images : Operation Not Supported

I have gone in and set permissions on the directory.
Deleted the Storage Node and recreated it with the same settings as before.

@Bigredcherokee does the storage node contain all the images or are they using NFS to another host?

[Bigredcherokee]

Yes the storage node is local and contains all the images. Not using a NFS share.

Is this on a client attempting to do a tasking?

[Bigredcherokee]

@Tom-Elliott Yes its when a Task is ready for a client to run. So the client gets through the pxe boot process then I get that message.

Does your /images folder on the FOG Server have a .mntcheck file in the /images and /images/dev folder?

ls -lhart should show the hidden files.

ls-lhRart|grep mntcheck should report back two files

@Tom-Elliott Tom I deleted the one in the dev dir and touch .mntcheck and it created new one ,but still the same error.

[Bigredcherokee]

@Tom-Elliott

ran through these steps[undefined]https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki//index.php?title=Image_Upload:_Error_Checking_Mount (undefined) the exports file was missing the /images so I put those in. Still same error

[Wayne Workman]

@Bigredcherokee
What operating system are you running FOG on? What version?

Can you provide the contents of your exports file?
On pretty much every distribution it’s here: /etc/exports

Also, if you feel like troubleshooting at your own pace you might look at this:

@Wayne-Workman
the Nfs service wasn’t running. also had to change the owner on the image directory.

[Tom Elliott]

Sorry, I totally meant to respond here. Completely missed it.

@Tom-Elliott Thanks Tom for all your help. Tom fixed quickly note to self check services…
