I recently bought an HP Proliant Microserver (n54l with 8GB RAM, 1 x 120GB SSD and 2 x WD 3TB HDD's) with the intention of learning about linux and virtualization. My intention was to use the SSD for running the operating systems and the HDD's forr storing music / films / photos / personal documents etc. So far I've created 4 partitions on each HDD and configured them in RAID1 using mdadm.
I'm comfortable with mounting these partitions as directories but I'm struggling to understand how I now go about setting them up as NFS shares. I want to be able to set up the Proxmox host as the NFS server with the virtual machines as NFS clients.
Also, how does fstab fit in to this? I'm vaguely aware that I'll need to edit fstab to ensure the directories are mounted automatically when I restart the server but don't understand how I go about doing this.
Any help would be appreciated!
