Tried to make the title as self explanatory as possible.

 

My ESXi server is mapping an unRAID NFS share (/mnt/user/Backup/ESXi).

The NFS datastore doesn't always, its status (active or inactive) is intermittent.

 

I tried researching on here and on googles but was unable to find a solution to this problem.

Someone suggested on here that " *(rw,no_root_squash) " works like a charm but I have no idea where to implement this argument.

The share that I am trying to mount isn't a disk share but a folder called "ESXi" inside the normal "Backup" share.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I have put it in public and I can not use it either.
Every time I'm going to write something through ESXI, it gives an error and disconnects.

Have you been able to solve the problem?

Has anyone got this to work? I've tried every setting but my ESXi VM will not see the NFS datastore hosted on UNRAID.

As soon as you admit you can't accomplish something, it happens.

I was able to get an NFS datastore mounted by actually putting in the proper path to the datastore...

From UNRAID terminal, you can run "showmount -e $IP" where IP is the IP of your UNRAID box. From there you'll see which ones are setup as NFS exports. I was trying to add the NFS share the same way I would add an SMB share, via a short name. The real way to use the output from the showmount command and put it in, something like "/mnt/user/domains"

Apparently something is still wrong. I can find the NFS datastore successfully, but it fails to do anything that requires WRITE permissions. I found this but I'm still trying to make sense of it...

 

I got all of my issues sorted by actually understanding what the security settings mean and how to apply a rule to NFS.
