I want to setup a NFS server to make my data accessible between machines. I have one physical machine that has Proxmox installed, I don't have another machine to use as a separate NFS server. Now I'm trying to figure out what is my best option to setup the NFS server.

Note: on the Proxmox host is a volume that needs to be used as data storage volume for the NFS server.

I thought I have two options:

  1. Install NFS server directly on the proxmox server and access the data from the clients by pointing to the proxmox host. The proxmox host manages the shares etc.

  2. Install a container node on proxmox, install the nfs-kernel-server package on the container node and mount the data storage volume. The NFS container node manages the the shares etc.

Note: There are two separate nodes in option #1, Node #1 and Node #2 (forgot to change it.)

Any advise is appreciated!

  • have you take a look into the proxmox forum? forum.proxmox.com/threads/… I think that will help you and if it solves your issue I would be happy if you would like to accept it as answer

  • You can try to run ganesha-nfs sever in a container
