# Setup NFS Clients

The NFS server has been setup on the head node, now every other node must be set up as an NFS client.

Install NFS
```
 yum install -y nfs-utils
```

Open the file /etc/fstab and add the following text, then save and exit.

 chead1:/export/apps    /opt/apps     nfs    intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,vers=3,_netdev,nofail    0 0
 chead1:/export/data    /opt/data     nfs    intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,vers=3,_netdev,nofail    0 0
 chead1:/export/service /opt/service  nfs    intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,vers=3,_netdev,nofail    0 0
 chead1:/export/site    /opt/site     nfs    intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,vers=3,_netdev,nofail    0 0
 chead1:/home           /home         nfs    intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,vers=3,_netdev,nofail    0 0

Make directories for NFS:
```
 mkdir /opt/{apps,data,service,site}
```

Start NFS

 systemctl start nfs
 systemctl enable nfs

Mount NFS
```
 mount -a
```

At this point, this node is fully setup to be an NFS client. Repeat these steps on every other node (except the head node), and then NFS will be completely set up.

# Testing

If all was successful, then the following should be the case on all compute nodes:

The file /etc/fstab should contain the information from the instructions.
The opt directory exists, and contains these four directories:
```
[root@cnode01 ~]# ls /opt
apps  data  service  site
```
The command systemctl status nfs shows the service as active with no errors.

The command df -h shows that NFS has been successfully mounted. E.g.

 [root@cnode01 ~]# df -h
