Parameters

hiera_array

• Default: false

nfs_package

Name of the NFS package

• Default: Uses system defaults as specified in module

nfs_service

Name of the NFS service

• Default: Uses system defaults as specified in module

mounts

Hash of mounts to be mounted on system. See below.

• Default: undef

===

Manage mounts

This works by passing the nfs::mounts hash to the create_resources() function. Thus, you can provide any valid parameter for mount. See the Type Reference for a complete list.

Example:

Mount nfs.example.com:/vol1 on /mnt/vol1 and nfs.example.com:/vol2 on /mnt/vol2

nfs::mounts:
  /mnt/vol1:
    ensure: present
    device: nfs.example.com:/vol1
    options: rw,rsize=8192,wsize=8192
    fstype: nfs
  old_log_file_mount:
    name: /mnt/vol2
    ensure: present
    device: nfs.example.com:/vol2
    fstype: nfs

Creating Hiera data from existing system

This module contains ext/fstabnfs2yaml.rb, which is a script that will parse /etc/fstab and print out the nfs::mounts hash in YAML with which you can copy/paste into Hiera.
