Help accessing folders and files from an existing NFS mount

[gh2023-aesun]

I have OpenCloud (OpenCloud 7.2.0 rolling) running in a Proxmox LXC container, installed via a Promox Helper Script . It is installed with STORAGE_USERS_POSIX_ENABLE_COLLABORATION commented out and has been working fine.

I'd like to add an nfs storage directory to my gui.

I mounted the nfs directory inside the LXC container as read-only (I don't want to modify anything on the mount) using:

pct set xxx -mp0 /.../nas_share,mp=/mnt/nas_share,ro=1

Inside the LXC container I checked the mounted directory as follows:

ls -lah /mnt/
total 8.5K
drwxr-xr-x   3 root   root    4.0K Jul  7 07:49 .
drwxr-xr-x  18 root   root    4.0K Jul  7 09:17 ..
drwxrwxrwx+  3 nobody nogroup    3 Jul  7 09:16 nas_share

I checked the contents of nas_share, which where there.

I added the following to /etc/opencloud/opencloud.env:

STORAGE_USERS_POSIX_WATCH_TYPE=inotifywait
STORAGE_USERS_POSIX_WATCH_FS=true
STORAGE_USERS_POSIX_WATCH_PATH=/mnt/nas_share

I also checked the nfs version of the mounted dir was 4.2:

findmnt
TARGET                    SOURCE            FSTYPE     OPTIONS
...
├─/mnt/nas_share/Podcasts ...:...           nfs4       ro,relatime,vers=4.2,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,namlen=255, ...
...

However, on restarting OpenCloud I don't see a way to access the nfs directory in my Personal file space.

Other manually created folders appear in the Personal file space, but not the nfs_share.

Is this a file permissions issue, because I mounted the nfs share read-only, or am I doing something else that is incorrect?

Yes, probably. Opencloud needs to assimilate the files by writing metadata into the extended file attributes. You should see some errors in the log.
