[SOLVED] NFS share not mounting correct size
Posted: Jan 4th, '21, 00:48
Greetings and Happy New Year.
I've rebuilt my home theater PC again and I'm having trouble with one of the nfs shares on that machine. I'm trying to mount an NFS share on my desktop. I can mount the share successfully, but it shows a tiny partition size when mounted. Here are some details. Both machines are running Mageia 7.
The partition in question (/mnt/expo) is empty. I've deleted and recreated/reformatted it as an ext 4 partition several times. The partition itself seems fine.
The partition next to it (/mnt/tvfiles) has been successfully mounted. It also gave me the same trouble - only mounted a percentage of the partition. I deleted and recreated it which solved the trouble. It's just not working on the partition in question.
The partition on the server look like this under the "df" command:
The size of /dev/sda11 (/mnt/expo) is as it should be.
Exports on the server look like this:
The shares from the HTPC (pvr) are mounted on the client in fstab thus:
None of the other partitions have any trouble at all; they all report correct partition sizes.
The "df" command on the client shows this when /mnt/expo is mounted:
I've checked inodes and they are all just fine, but when the share mounts at only 50 gigs, the inodes are reduced accordingly. I guess that's no surprise, but this is the first time I've run into this particular trouble.
Any help appreciated.

As you can see, the mounted share only shows a fraction of it's actual size. That discrepancy appears in file managers and all other means I have of measuring the size of a directory. What's causing this? How can I fix it.

The partition on the server look like this under the "df" command:
- Code: Select all
[root@pvr /mnt]# df
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
.....(Irrelevant stuff deleted here)
/dev/sda10 336G 69M 319G 1% /mnt/tvfiles
/dev/sda11 351G 69M 333G 1% /mnt/expo
The size of /dev/sda11 (/mnt/expo) is as it should be.
Exports on the server look like this:
- Code: Select all
root@pvr /mnt]# cat /etc/exports
# generated by drakhosts.pl
/mnt/burbank *(no_all_squash,async,secure,no_subtree_check,rw)
/mnt/cineplex *(no_all_squash,async,secure,no_subtree_check,rw)

/mnt/expo *(no_all_squash,async,secure,no_subtree_check,rw)
The shares from the HTPC (pvr) are mounted on the client in fstab thus:
- Code: Select all
[root@spike pvr]# cat /etc/fstab|grep pvr
pvr:/mnt/burbank /mnt/pvr/burbank nfs nosuid,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,soft 0 0
pvr:/mnt/cineplex /mnt/pvr/cineplex nfs wsize=8192,rsize=8192,nosuid,soft 0 0
pvr:/mnt/downtown /mnt/pvr/downtown nfs nosuid,wsize=8192,rsize=8192,soft 0 0
pvr:/mnt/expo /mnt/pvr/expo nfs wsize=8192,rsize=8192,nosuid,soft 0 0 <-- Expo
pvr:/mnt/fox /mnt/pvr/fox nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,nosuid,soft 0 0
pvr:/mnt/imax /mnt/pvr/imax nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,nosuid,soft 0 0
pvr:/mnt /mnt/pvr/mnt nfs wsize=8192,nosuid,rsize=8192,soft 0 0
pvr:/mnt/tvfiles /mnt/pvr/tvfiles nfs nosuid,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,soft 0 0 <-- Same hdd, different part
None of the other partitions have any trouble at all; they all report correct partition sizes.
The "df" command on the client shows this when /mnt/expo is mounted:
- Code: Select all
[root@spike pvr]# df
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
....(more irrelevant stuff)
pvr:/mnt/tvfiles 336G 69M 319G 1% /mnt/pvr/tvfiles
pvr:/mnt/expo 50G 19G 29G 40% /mnt/pvr/expo
I've checked inodes and they are all just fine, but when the share mounts at only 50 gigs, the inodes are reduced accordingly. I guess that's no surprise, but this is the first time I've run into this particular trouble.
