I'm just now running tests on beta2 and when I add new NFS ISO storage I cant see any ISO files within the web manager. I can see the files on the consoles on the hosts in /mnt/pve/xxx but web gui shows nothing under content. The status shows enabled, active, usage etc.

NFS images shows just fine. But I would like to be able to connect/attach images files in the storage to VM's and the ability to see if they are in fact attached to any current VM in the cluster. Also when creating new VM I would like to be able to attach a unused image from the repository instead of having to create a new image.
Also the delete option of images under the storage repository is grayed out.

This has changed between beta1 and beta2. Move your iso images to /mnt/pve/template/iso and they should show up in web UI.
 
Ok, so how do I do this from the web gui? I cant find a way to manually set the mount point to be /mnt/pve/template/iso
I guess and hope that this will be fixed in next released build of the v. 2 ISO.
 
Not even after manually mounting the nfs iso share to /mnt/pve/template/iso the iso files does not show up in the web UI. Or editing the /etc/pve/storage.cfg to mount in the locations.
 
just add the NFS share via Proxmox VE gui and add ISO as content type.
now you see a subdir on your nfs server (./template/iso)

if you are connected to node1 you need to upload the ISO via gui also via node1. if you upload using node2 you will get an error (bug) - but this is shown on the 'recent task' log.
 
Ok, now I get it. The template/iso directory structure is on the actual NFS server. Makes sense when you think about it since you now also can specify a storage to host all kinds of files, images, isos etc...

Thanks for clarifying this. :)
 
It doesn't recurse directories within template/iso however... everything must be in that root dir... no folders within ISO... pity
