So I put up a brand new PVE 4.4 and wanted to mount a CIFS/SMB share off of a Windows server.
I made this note to do this from the last PVE:
#mkdir /mnt/sambaspot
#echo “//sambaspot.localsystem.local/misc2/vm-images /mnt/sambaspot cifs username=sambaspot,password=P@ssw0rd 0 0” >> /etc/fstab
#mount -a
Then, I got the dreaded:
mount error: cifs filesystem not supported by the system
mount error(19): No such device
I looked everywhere and could not figure it out. I installed a few extra packages that I probably didn't need.
Then I took a thought from Windows and "shutdown -r now".
#mount -a
#
It worked.
Note, https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Storage_Model I believe used to have the instructions above for mounting CIFS.
Note2, I made a series of "echo" and "printf" statements to add/replace text in files and do other nifty things rather than some manual editing.
