Hi guys,
I hope you've some more experience with nfs4 and the uid/gid mapping than me.
I want to mount a nfs4 Share from our Storage on our RHEL7.2 System. I've installed & configured the idmapper properly.
Unfortunately I run into some problems with the gid/uid mapping....
When I create a file with the root user, the fileowner becomes nobody:nobody. That's the correct behavior.
We've created a user on both systems (the RHEL-System and the Storage) that should become the fileowner of the files created on the share. Thats also working.
The problem:
When I create a file as any other user (not root and not the user we created on storage and server side) the nfs-share gets into a stale state. It is not possible to access the nfs share anymore.
When I umount the NFS-Share and re-mount with nfs3. I can see, that the fileowner of the created file, is the user, instead of nobody:nobody!? Why? And how is this even possible, when the user isnt created on the storageside!?
thanking you in anticipation!
Best regards!
