Hi,
I have a storage system that is exporting many directories to multiple
clients resulting in a lot of mountpoints (156) on each client. What I'm
trying to do is to create a single directory on the server and then use
mount --bind to mount all the different directories (which are stored on
different LVM volumes) into this single export directory and finally export
this directory to the clients.
Now the exports man-page mentions the crossmnt option but it also mentions
that it cannot be used if I want to export the directory to multiple
clients. Is there another way to accomplish something like this?
Regards,
Dennis

I'm a bit confused by the paths and ip blocks:
- You want to export the path that the client sees
(/exports/country/whatever), not the original path
(/mnt/vg0/...).
- If you expect clients to be able to traverse from /exports/ to
filesystems underneath, then you'd want to make sure /exports/
is exported to anything that the filesystems underneath are.
But actually you should only need the first /exports entry; filesystems
underneath should inherit export options from the parent.

Apparently I need to export both the /exports directory and all the letter
directories beneath it for the crossmnt option to work, e.g.:
/exports 192.168...
/exports/country/de/a 192.168...
/exports/country/de/b 192.168...
/exports/country/de/c 192.168...
etc.

I've modified the entries so that the options are now exactly identical in
/var/lib/nfs/etab (all have set nohide,crossmnt,no_subtree_check now). This
doesn't seem to help so far.

Each of the 10 volumes contains (not quite) random letter directories for
various countries and when the are mounted on the clients they end up in
the proper hierarchy e.g.:
vol01/de/a => country/de/a
vol03/de/b => country/de/b
vol07/de/c => country/de/c
...
vol03/fr/a => country/fr/a
vol05/fr/b => country/fr/b
...
so I cannot really mount entire volumes in one go on the client. I guess
another way would be to mount the volumes on the clients and then use bind
mounts there to create the appropriate hierarchy. Since I'd have to
duplicate that on each client though I'd really like to avoid this and
accomplish this on the server side.

I'd be interested to move on to v4 but from what I've heard the
user-mapping no longer is done using the uid. Since the users don't have
entries in /etc/passwd and exist purely as id's in the filesystem the
username based mapping in nfsv4 doesn't allow me to use it in this case.
I guess the only way to accomplish that would be to write a custom
rpcidmapd daemon?
I'm currently downloading the openfiler installer so I can replicate the
setup here for better testing. Maybe updating the nfs-utils package to a
more current version will have an impact.

Dennis

Huh. I did just a quick test, mount --bind'ing a couple directories
under a crossmnt export, and verified that I could see the result from
an nfsv3 client.
2.6.38-ish kernel, fc13 userspace (nfs-utils-1.2.2-6).

Oh, so you're actually exporting each filesystem *twice*, in two
different places?
I think the server can deal with that. But probably only if the two
filesystems have the same export options. (You've got crossmnt and
no_subtree_check set on one but not the other.)
Wait, and looks like you're also bind mounting *subdirectories* of
filesystems instead of whole filesystems. I'm not sure the server will
handle that the way you'd expect.
Is there any reason you can't just bind-mount all of /mnt/vg0/vol01/, or
whatever, to the same path?

Note also NFSv2/v3 clients aren't necessarily equipped to deal with
filesystem boundaries, and some applications may be confused by seeing
what look like files with the same inode number on the same filesystem
that are actually different files.

The /mnt/vg0/volXX exports are currently used to export each filesystem
containing letters individually. On the client I then mount each letter
individually which means access to each mountpoint doesn't have to traverse
filesystem boundaries on the server but it also means I end up with 156
individual mountpoints which is a pain to deal with. I had to write a
script that runs a loop mounting 5 letters then waiting 30 seconds then
mount the next 5 letters etc. If I try to mount these in one go about 10
mounts work fine but then I only get errors. Apparently the server can only
handle so many mounts in a certain timeframe (socket timeouts?)
That's why I'm aiming for consolidating the letters on the server using
bind mounts and then just mount the country directories leaving me with 6
mountpoints per client which would be *much* easier to handle.
The 192 IP range was a mistake and that should be the same 213 range as the
/exports export. If I can get this working then I plan to eliminate the
individual /mnt/vg0/... exports if they are not needed.
> But actually you should only need the first /exports entry; filesystems

This is what /var/lib/nfs/etab says for /exports after an exportfs -r:
/exports
213.131.252.0/255.255.255.0(rw,sync,wdelay,hide,crossmnt,secure,no_root_squash,no_all_squash,no_subtree_check,secure_locks,acl,mapping=identity,anonuid=96,anongid=96)
When I mount this I can see the proper subdirectories until I get to the
bind mounted letter directories which have their expected contents on the
server but appear empty on the client.

Just export the top directory with 'crossmnt' - it should work fine.
The 'multiple clients' thing only affects 'nohide' and I think it only
affected it back in 2.4 days.
Lots changed with 2.6, but maybe not enough of the man page changed :-(
So try with 'crossmnt' and if it doesn't work, then come back with details.

I've tried this now but it doesn't seem to work. This is the setup so far:
===========
On the server I've created the bind mounts like this:
/mnt/vg0/vol01/country/de/a on /exports/country/de/a type none (rw,bind)
/mnt/vg0/vol03/country/de/b on /exports/country/de/b type none (rw,bind)
...
Then I put the following line in /etc/exports:
/exports
192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0(rw,anonuid=96,anongid=96,secure,no_root_squash,wdelay,sync,crossmnt,no_subtree_check)
additionally these exports exist for each volume:
/mnt/vg0/vol01/country
213.131.252.0/255.255.255.0(rw,anonuid=96,anongid=96,secure,no_root_squash,wdelay,sync)
===========
On the client I've mounted this export like this:
mount -o rw,noatime,tcp,rsize=8192,hard,intr,nfsvers=3,addr=192.168.0.8
192.168.0.8:/exports/country/de /data/country/de
This succeeds and I can see the letters a-z in /data/country/de however
these directories are all empty so crossing the filesystem border doesn't
seem to work.
===========
The server is an openfiler appliance:
[root@exonas900 ~]# conary q|grep nfs
libnfsidmap=0.20-1.1-1
nfs-client=1.0.10-4.6-1
nfs-server=1.0.10-4.6-1
nfs-utils=1.0.10-4.6-1
[root@exonas900 ~]# uname -a

===========
The client I'm testing with is a Centos 5 system:
[root@wmembf10 ~]# rpm -qa|grep nfs
