atom Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 I'm running unRAID v6.2.4 and trying to mount a share via NFSv4 from a linux client but it doesn't seem to be enabled/supported. # mount -t nfs4 nas:/mnt/disk1 /mnt/disk1 mount.nfs4: Protocol not supported # rpcinfo -s nas program version(s) netid(s) service owner 100000 2,3,4 local,udp,tcp portmapper superuser 100024 1 tcp,udp status 32 100003 3 udp,tcp nfs superuser 100021 4,3,1 tcp,udp nlockmgr superuser 100005 3,2,1 tcp,udp mountd superuser EDIT: So it looks like NFSv4 requires a bit of work to be functional on Slackware. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/does-slackware-14-1-or-current-have-nfsv4-support-4175550162/ Assuming that's correct, can a mod/dev look into this? Or correct me in the event I'm wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment
limetech Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 That is a documentation error: current versions of unRAID only support NFSv3. Supporting NFSv4 requires kernel option turned on as well as addition user space tools. We will try to get this into the next -rc release. Quote Link to comment
bennymundz Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Hi Tom, are there still plans to upgrade to NFSv4 ?There have been a few RC releases since this post but i see NFSv3 is still the implemented option. Quote Link to comment
MSattler Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Wondering this as well Quote Link to comment
DerCarsten Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Bump Sorry to bump this. I'm running 6.7.2 and failed to activate V4. So I consider it to be not implemented. Any plans? Quote Link to comment
DerCarsten Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Hi, I installed a NFS-Ganesha container and can now provide NFS4. Technically it works and it solved the issues I had with NFS3. Nevertheless, it is a bolt-on, which is a work-around for something which should be provided by Unraid in the first place. I can see that there is a lot of work going into Unraid and I really appreciate all the new ideas and fixes being rolled out in a comparably high-frequent manner. I'm glad I came across it months ago and I think it is a very competitive NAS OS. If it wasn't that, I wouldn't use it. It would be good to see NFS4 natively in Unraid one day, so that this 100MB bolt-on work-around container can go, eventually. Regards Carsten Quote Link to comment
trott Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 +1, I also request to add NFS v4 support in unraid 1 Quote Link to comment
buzzra Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 This definitely needs to happen. It has been promised for over 3 years. Or, at least, the Doc needs to be changed to reflect that we still only have NFSv3 and NFSv4 cannot be enabled. I tried to edit the wiki, but I don't have permissions. buzz 1 Quote Link to comment
Khadgar Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 On 12/13/2019 at 8:02 AM, DerCarsten said: I installed a NFS-Ganesha container and can now provide NFS4. Hey. Could you provide some information on how you set this up? Do you disable NFS sharing on Unraid and instead have it be done via the container? Quote Link to comment
DerCarsten Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Hi Khadgar, no, I kept the native Unraid NFS v3 share untouched. I've installed the container with a custom Network Type (Custom: eth0) and set a Fixed IP address in the Unraid GUI. The new address must not be used by any other device in your subnet. The one I used is outside the DHCP range of the DHCP server, so collisions later on will be avoided. Regards Carsten 1 Quote Link to comment
coolspot Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 I assume only NFSv3 is still only supported? Quote Link to comment
trahma Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 +1 for requesting NFS v4. I don't understand why a protocol that was released in 2012 is still not supported. 1 Quote Link to comment
FunkySkyawlker Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Also +1, i am editing photos and videos directly over network, and when comparing nfs to smb, nfs feels alot snappier. Quote Link to comment
guybrush2012 Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Hello, why doesn't use Unraid nfs4? A modern operating system, must have nfs4.x support. @limetech you can implement it? 1 Quote Link to comment
