    <y NFS is storing data in "/" instead of "home", what do i have

    'df -h" shows the following:

    tmpfs                                    1.8G  8.0K  1.8G 1% /tmp

/dev/mapper/fedora_localhost--live-home  3.6T  4.8G  3.4T 1% /home

    I need to fix it. I don't know where to look for my mistake,
    Obviously I
    want to store files in the 3.4 TB partition not root.



I assume the above is for your NFS server.   "showmount -e" should
show you what directory is exported call it "<some_path>/nfs_share".
.
Yes, via ssh:  [bobg@WS1 ~]$ ssh -X [email protected]

[bobg@nfs ~]$ showmount -e
Export list for nfs:
/nfs4exports/home 192.168.50.0/24

Assuming you want to move the exported directory to "/home/nfs_share",
.
/I am the onlly client and my fstab is:
192.168.50.32:/nfs4exports/home  /media/nfs    nfs4 rw,soft,intr,fg,comment=systemd.automout  0 0

/
there should be an entry for "<some_path>/nfs_share" in "/etc/exports
This is what I find in /etc/exports (I odn't remeber how it was created.)
[bobg@nfs ~]$ cat /etc/exports
/nfs4exports/home 192.168.50.0/24(rw,sync,insecure,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)

At this point I m lost, I expected the stored files to go to "home" not "/".

Bob -

".
If you want to avoid changing the client mount commands, you can use a
symbolic link:

0.  Ask your clients to stop using the share
1.   sudo exportfs -u "<some_path>/nfs_share"
This disables the share so you can move it

2.   sudo mv "<some_path>/nfs_share" /home
this should free some space in the root partition

3.   sudo ln -s "/home/nfs_share" "<some_path>"
this should avoid the need for any NFS configuration
changes

4. sudo exportsfs "<some_path>/nfs_share"

This may be an oversimplification, e.g. if you have separate shares
for each user.   If this isn't what you need, show us the output of
"showmount -e" and the contents of "/etc/exports".
