I cannot add a NFS4 storage via Datacenter->Storage->Add->NFS. I always get "create storage failed: storage 'nfsshare' is not online (500)".

I also tried adding the NFS4 storage manually to /etc/pve/storage.cfg:

nfs: nfsshare
export /nfsonceph
path /mnt/pve/nfsshare
server g1.net.innostus.com
content images,rootdir
options vers=4.1,proto=tcp

This results also in "storage 'nfsshare' is not online (500)"

However when I manually mount the share with the command below, the NFS share works perfectly.

mount -t nfs -o nfsvers=4.1,proto=tcp g1.net.innostus.com:/nfsonceph /root/nfstest

Please help.
 
Yeah I hit the same issue (in the thread linked above). The only way I could get it working was to re-enable rpcbind on the NFS server. This is what I did on Debian:
Code:
sudo systemctl unmask rpcbind.service
sudo systemctl unmask rpcbind.socket
and ensure port 111 (TCP and UDP) is open.

Try restarting the Proxmox VE services (pveproxy, pvedaemon, etc.) to see if that resolves the issue.
