### NFS Setup ### NFS Setup
In NFS, files are physically stored on a server machine, and trials on the client machine can read/write those files in the same way that they access local files. NFS follows the Client-Server Architecture, with an NFS server providing physical storage, trials on the remote machine with an NFS client can read/write those files in the same way that they access local files.
#### Install NFS on server machine #### NFS Server
First, install NFS server: An NFS server can be any machine as long as it can provide enough physical storage, and network connection with **remote machine** for NNI trials. Usually you can choose one of the remote machine as NFS Server.
On Ubuntu, install NFS server through `apt-get`:
```bash ```bash
sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server
``` ```
Suppose `/tmp/nni/shared` is used as the physical storage, then run: Suppose `/tmp/nni/shared` is used as the physical storage, then run:
```bash ```bash
sudo mkdir -p /tmp/nni/shared mkdir -p /tmp/nni/shared
sudo echo "/tmp/nni/shared *(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash)" >> /etc/exports sudo echo "/tmp/nni/shared *(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash)" >> /etc/exports
sudo service nfs-kernel-server restart sudo service nfs-kernel-server restart
``` ```
You can check if the above directory is successfully exported by NFS using `sudo showmount -e localhost` You can check if the above directory is successfully exported by NFS using `sudo showmount -e localhost`
#### Install NFS on client machine #### NFS Client
First, install NFS client: For a trial on remote machine able to access shared files with NFS, an NFS client needs to be installed. For example, on Ubuntu:
```bash ```bash
sudo apt-get install nfs-common sudo apt-get install nfs-common
``` ```
Then create & mount the mounted directory of shared files: Then create & mount the mounted directory of shared files:
```bash ```bash
sudo mkdir -p /mnt/nfs/nni/ mkdir -p /mnt/nfs/nni/
sudo mount -t nfs 10.10.10.10:/tmp/nni/shared /mnt/nfs/nni sudo mount -t nfs 10.10.10.10:/tmp/nni/shared /mnt/nfs/nni
``` ```
where `10.10.10.10` should be replaced by the real IP of NFS server machine in practice. where `10.10.10.10` should be replaced by the real IP of NFS server machine in practice.
