Comment: We discovered we don't need the ssh-sfs security group for VMs, which are clients

...

SFS should be available for tenants created after 28/10/2022, if the tenant is older and you wish to use SFS, please open us a ticket here.

Security Group for SFS access

A security group for the VM that want to mount the file share is required. In particular ports 111/2049 for TCP/UDP should be allowed for ingress (and egress).

This security group needs to be available and added to the VMs that want to access the SFS.

If you don't have the ssh-nfs security group available in your tenant, you can create it with the following rules:

...

Create Server Openstack SFS

...

To mount the shared filesystem in a VM you can type the following commands:

sudo mkdir /sfs-test # create the directory to mount the filesystem
sudo mount <PUT_YOUR_SFS_URL_HERE> /sfs-test

Example:

sudo mkdir /sfs-test # create the directory to mount the filesystem
sudo mount 10.83.81.227:/share_d161509e_2ea9_43f2_a472_b263ede7628f /sfs-test


Alternatively, you can add an entry in the /etc/fstab to automatically mount the filesystem.
