##Module Description
This module installs, configures and manages everything on NFS clients and servers.
This module is a complete refactor of the module haraldsk/nfs, because Harald Skoglund sadly is not maintaining his module actively anymore. It is stripped down to use only the class 'nfs' and parametrized to act as a server, client or both with the parameters 'server_enabled' and 'client_enabled'. It also has some dependencies on newer stdlib functions like 'difference'.
It supports the OS Families Ubuntu, Debian, Redhat, SUSE, Gentoo and Archlinux. It supports also Strict Variables, so if you pass all OS specific parameters correctly it should work on your preferred OS too. Feedback, bugreports, and feature requests are always welcome, visit https://github.com/derdanne/puppet-nfs or send me an email.
When you are using a puppet version 3.x like it is shipped with Redhat Satellite 6, please use a version 1.x.x from puppet forge or the branch puppet3 when cloning directly from Github. (Note: voxpupuli#49 (comment)). I'll recommend using puppet >= 4.6.1, puppet versions up until 4.6.0 had various issues.
If you want to contribute, please do a fork on github, create a branch "feature name" with your features and do a pull request.
##Setup
###What derdanne-nfs affects
This module can be used to configure your nfs client and/or server, it could export nfs mount resources via storeconfigs or simply mount nfs shares on a client. You can also easily use the create_resources function when you store your exports i.e. via hiera.
###Setup requirements
This Module depends on puppetlabs-stdlib >= 4.5.0 and puppetlabs-concat >= 1.1.2, you need to have these modules installed to use derdanne-nfs module.
###Beginning with derdanne-nfs
On a nfs server the following code is sufficient to get all packages installed and services running to use nfs:
node server {
class { '::nfs':
server_enabled => true,
}
}
On a client the following code is sufficient:
node server {
class { '::nfs':
client_enabled => true,
}
}
##Usage
This will export /data/folder on the server and automagically mount it on client.
node server {
class { '::nfs':
server_enabled => true
}
nfs::server::export{ '/data_folder':
ensure => 'mounted',
clients => '10.0.0.0/24(rw,insecure,async,no_root_squash) localhost(rw)'
}
}
# By default, mounts are mounted in the same folder on the clients as
# they were exported from on the server
node client {
class { '::nfs':
client_enabled => true,
}
Nfs::Client::Mount <<| |>>
}
This will mount /data on client in /share/data.
node client {
class { '::nfs':
server_enabled => false,
client_enabled => true,
nfs_v4_client => true,
nfs_v4_idmap_domain => $::domain,
}

}
}

}
nfs::server::export { '/homeexport':
ensure => 'mounted',
clients => '10.0.0.0/24(rw,insecure,async,root_squash)',
mount => '/srv/home',
}
}
node server2 {
class { '::nfs':
server_enabled => true,
}
# ensure is passed to mount, which will make the client not mount it
# the directory automatically, just add it to fstab
nfs::server::export { '/media_library':
ensure => 'present',
nfstag => 'media',
clients => '10.0.0.0/24(rw,insecure,async,no_root_squash) localhost(rw)',

# so).

# For NFSv4 to work this has to be equal on servers and clients
# set it manually if unsure.
#
# All nfsv4 exports are bind mounted into /export/$mount_name
# and mounted on /srv/$mount_name on the client.
# Both values can be overridden through parameters both globally
# and on individual nodes.

###Software versions needed:
facter > 1.6.2 puppet > 3.2.0
###Ruby Gems needed:

##Limitations If you want to have specific package versions installed you may manage the needed packages outside of this module (use manage_packages => false). It is only tested to use 'present', 'installed', 'absent', 'purged', 'held' and 'latest' as argument for the parameters server_package_ensure and client_package_ensure.
##Development
Derdanne modules are open projects. So if you want to make this module even better, you can contribute to this module on Github.
This module based on Harald Skoglund [email protected] from https://github.com/haraldsk/puppet-module-nfs/ but has been fundementally refactored
