Currently OpenVZ kernel doesn't include kernel NFS server support. Howether you are still able to use user space NFS server inside VE.
NFS client
Preparations
Software
You will need the following software:
Prepare the VE
To allow VE use NFS filesystem you will need to start it fith "nfs" feature enabled.
# vzctl set 100 --features "nfs:on" --save # vzctl start 101
After this you may see nfs in /proc/filesystems
# vzctl exec 101 cat /proc/filesystems ext3 ext2 nodev rpc_pipefs nodev proc nodev nfs nodev sysfs nodev tmpfs nodev devpts
Mounting NFS
Assuming that you already have NFS server set up at 192.168.0.1:/nfs_pub
mounting will be simple
# vzctl enter 100 # mkdir /nfs # mount -t nfs 192.168.0.1:/nfs_pub /nfs # cat /proc/mounts simfs / simfs rw 0 0 proc /proc proc rw 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs rw 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0 nfs /nfs nfs rw,vers=3,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,hard,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,addr=192.168.0.1 0 0
