After running container returned default index page because the mountpoint and default web page location didn’t match.

You can inspect the pod itself with ‘kubectl exec -it nginx-pv-pod — bash’ and cd to /usr/share/nginx/html’ to find the mounter index.html file.

In reply to Caden Michael Weiner. Hi, It is not mandatory to configure NFS on master node. You can even configure your NFS server outside of K8s cluster nodes. But make sure you have allowed the subnets of your master and worker nodes in NFS configurations. Allow NFS ports in OS firewall and create SELinux rule if applicable.

Hi Pradeep,
I am currently trying to follow the tutorial, however when I attempt to create the pod it gives me the following error:
Warning FailedMount 73s (x9 over 3m21s) kubelet MountVolume.SetUp failed for volume “nfs-pv” : mount failed: exit status 32
Mounting command: mount
Mounting arguments: -t nfs -o hard,nfsvers=4.1 10.230.87.167:/opt/k8s-pods/data /var/lib/kubelet/pods/833f9b8d-fa7b-4666-bb6c-c9cf5796f579/volumes/kubernetes.io~nfs/nfs-pv
Output: mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 10.230.87.167:/opt/k8s-pods/data

I have set up the client and server up and am able to transfer files between them using nfs. I have setup the nfs on one of my worker nodes, but my master and other worker node can access it. Is it required for the nfs share to be located on the master and not a worker node?

In reply to Krishan Kumar Pareek.

Hi Krishan,

It seems like NFS server is not reachable from your worker nodes. Please make sure connectivity is there among the NFS server and K8s nodes.
For testing you can try to mount the nfs share manually on worker nodes using mount.

Facing the following error:

Warning FailedMount 4m5s (x45 over 137m) kubelet, ip-172-168-10-227.us-east-2.compute.internal Unable to attach or mount volumes: unmounted volumes=[nfs-pv2], unattached volumes=[nfs-pv2 default-token-ln9bq]: timed out waiting for the condition

Could you please guide?
