NFS version 4?

Moving your thread to the Feature Request forum, for consideration in future firmware releases.

This is something that you may want to look at sooner than later. The next version of Red Hat Fedora, being released in a week, is going to use NFSv4 by default.

We have it in the kernel already, just not sure to what point it is exposed in user space. We are looking into it.

My 2100, RAIDiator 4.1.6, does support v4, as well as 2 and 3.

sudo rpcinfo -p backupserver | grep nfs
100003 2 udp 2049 nfs
100003 3 udp 2049 nfs
100003 4 udp 2049 nfs
100003 2 tcp 2049 nfs
100003 3 tcp 2049 nfs
100003 4 tcp 2049 nfs

Replace "backupserver" with your NAS IP address.

The problem is the config file needs an additional parameter which defines the NFS v4 pseudo-filesystem root (only define one at the top level). You then only need to mount the root "backupserver:/" in v4, which in my config actually mounts the NAS /backup directory. So I only have one NFS share, so added "fsid=0" to the /etc/exports

"/backup" *(fsid=0,insecure,insecure_locks,rw,async)

To mount my local directory /archive I use

sudo mount -t nfs4 -o rw,hard,intr,bg backupserver:/ /archive

Note backupserver:/ is used as you mount the root only, don't use the actual share name like /backup.

As I posted in your other thread, you appear to have the ReadyNAS Duo, not the 2100.

Bump.

Just wondering if there have been any updates NFS-wise in the past year. Thanks in advance.
