Is there a way to mount a read-only NFS share into Proxmox VE?
We have a NFS share, where we collect all our needed .iso files. This share is presented as "read-only" for all all machines, that need an iso from it. Is there a way to use this in proxmox ve?
Whenever we try to mount this we get this error:
Code:
create storage failed: mkdir /mnt/pve/isos/template: Read-only file system at /usr/share/perl5/PVE/Storage/Plugin.pm line 1919. (500)
 
i found this thread: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/isnt-there-an-option-to-mount-an-nfs-share-as-read-only.147370/
creating the directory structure works, but pve only looks into /template/iso for iso images.
So i would have to link every iso from top folder as symlink into the template/iso folder so that it can be used....
I tried creating template/iso as symlink to the top folder, but this did not work.

we are using this iso NFS share for many machines and hypervisors, so it would be wonderful to use it in proxmox too.
