Hi,
I'm trying to get ESXi 4 to use an NFS export as a datastore, but it
continually fails to connect. The error shown on the vSphere Client is the
well-known "NFS Error: Unable to Mount filesystem: The mount request was denied
by the NFS server. Check that the export exists and that the client is
permitted to mount it"
The NFS server is running OpenSolaris 2009.06. I am able to mount the NFS
export from another OpenSolaris box successfully.
The solaris box (solar) is on 10.0.0.50
The ESXi server is on 10.0.0.52
The NFS export is /tank/nfs/vm1
The vm1 directory is globally readable and writable.
drwxrwxrwx 2 jamesb staff 2 2009-06-19 22:12 vm1
I set up the share using: zfs set sharenfs=rw=10.0.0.52,root=10.0.0.52
tank/nfs/vm1
I have also tried without the rw option, and without the root option, without
any luck.
# showmount -e
export list for solar:
/tank/nfs/vm1 10.0.0.52
(or, if I removed the rw and root options I get: /tank/nfs/vm1 (everyone))
# sharemgr show -vp
default nfs=()
zfs
zfs/tank/nfs/vm1 nfs=() nfs:sys=(rw="10.0.0.52" root="10.0.0.52")
/tank/nfs/vm1
Snoop shows the following:

Can anyone help or suggest where I might look next? I'm completely stumped.
Many thanks,
