Sharing directories with NFS in Solaris 10


If You want to share a directory in Solaris, may be, the home users, or a directory with binaries.
With svcs the service status can be checked, so lets check the status of the nfs server:
-bash-3.00# svcs network/nfs/server

STATE STIME FMRI

offline 2:19:03 svc:/network/nfs/server:default

The service is offline, so you have to enable it and start it, lets do it:

-bash-3.00# svcadm enable -r network/nfs/server
-bash-3.00# svcadm enable -s network/nfs/server
-bash-3.00# svcadm restart network/nfs/server

Now it is started:

-bash-3.00# svcs network/nfs/server
STATE STIME FMRI
online 2:29:51 svc:/network/nfs/server:default

Now, to share a directory, edit /etc/dfs/dfstab and add:

share -F nfs /export/test

Save the file and execute:

# shareall -F nfs

Now check the shares:

-bash-3.00# share
- /export/test rw ""
