|                      |                     |                      |

[1] Configure NFS Client.
[root@node01 ~]#
dnf -y install nfs-utils

vi /etc/idmapd.conf
# line 5 : uncomment and change to your domain name

Domain =
srv.world
[root@node01 ~]#
mount -t nfs dlp.srv.world:/home/nfsshare /mnt

[root@node01 ~]#

# NFS share is mounted

# if mount with NFSv3, add [-o vers=3] option

[2] To mount NFS share automatically when System starts, add setting in [/etc/fstab].
[root@node01 ~]#
vi /etc/fstab
UUID=7a46325a-1310-4bbf-85cd-77b328a33e77 /            xfs     defaults        0 0
UUID=52bc9271-2c18-4cf3-9885-503c0f22b4ae /boot        xfs     defaults        0 0
# add to last line : set NFS share
dlp.srv.world:/home/nfsshare              /mnt         nfs     defaults        0 0
[3] To mount NFS share dynamically when anyone access to there, Configure AutoFS.
[root@node01 ~]#
dnf -y install autofs
[root@node01 ~]#
vi /etc/auto.master
# add to last line

/-    /etc/auto.mount

[root@node01 ~]#
vi /etc/auto.mount
# create new : [mount point] [option] [location]

/mnt   -fstype=nfs,rw  dlp.srv.world:/home/nfsshare

[root@node01 ~]#
systemctl enable --now autofs

# move to the mount point to verify mounting

[root@node01 ~]#
cd /mnt

[root@node01 mnt]#
df -hT /mnt

Filesystem                   Type  Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
