Persisting an NFS4 mount point on macOS Monterey
Posted on Sun 06 March 2022 in Sysadmin
How to auto-mount an NFS4 share after startup on macOS Monterey?
This blog post
explains how to do it with basically one line in /etc/fstab
:
192.168.200.200:/nfs_share /System/Volumes/Data/my_nfs_share nfs rw,resvport,hard,bg,intr,rw,tcp,nfc,rsize=65536,wsize=65536
Note that the nolockd
option is not included here unlike in the original blog post
because this option resulted in an illegal argument
error when I tried to access
the mount on macOS Monterey. It might work on earlier macOS versions. And the option
is probably unnecessary for an NFS4 mount.
