We need to work on building your confidence by showing you how to verify that each change you make is working as expected. On the server, I suggest you copy "/etc/exports" to "/etc/exports.new", edit "/etc/exports.new" to make the change and post the .new file here so others can check for problems. Once you are confident that the changes are good, you can use "showmount -e" to record the current state, then, on the client, unmount the server so you can make the change: On the client, unmount all nfs filesystems: step 0. sudo umount -a -t nfs Back on the server, you need to stop exporting the old directory,: step 0: sudo exportfs -u "/nfs_share/home" then move the data from "/nfs_share/home" to "/home/nfs_share": step 1: sudo mv /nfs_share/home /home/nfs_share systemctl daemon-reload Check that /nfs_share is empty, that /home/nfs_share has the expected contents, and that the root partition has gained roughly the same space that has been lost on the /hom Check that /nfs_share is empty and that /home/nfs_share has the expected contents. Update "/etc/exports", and export the new "/home/nfs_share": step 2. sudo mv /etc/exports /etc/exports.old step 3. sudo mv /etc/exports.new /etc/exports step 4: sudo exportfs -av Verify that this worked by running "showmount -e" Back on the client, make a "/etc/fstab.new" with the same process and post for review. The version you posted earlier seems to have a typo, but that may have occurred when posting. Once you are confident in your fstab, replace the original version with the updated version step 5: sudo mv /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.old step 6: sudo mv /etc/fstab.new /etc/fstab Then let systemd know about the changes: step 7: sudo systemctl daemon-reload step 8: e partition by running "df -lh / /home" Update "/etc/exports", and export the new "/home/nfs_share": step 2. sudo mv /etc/exports /etc/exports.old step 3. sudo mv /etc/exports.new /etc/exports step 4: sudo exportfs -av Verify that this worked by running "showmount -e" Back on the client, make a "/etc/fstab.new" with the same process and post for review. The version you posted earlier seems to have a typo, but that may have occurred when posting. Once you are confident in your fstab, replace the original version with the updated version step 5: sudo mv /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.old step 6: sudo mv /etc/fstab.new /etc/fstab Then let systemd know about the changes: step 7: sudo systemctl daemon-reload Verify that the changes are working: the contents of "/media/nfs" should look the same as they did before the server ran out of space on the root partition. -- George N.
