I have two Dietpis. Identical each with identical 3T Hard Drives. What is the best way to mount the hard drive attached to Dietpi-1 from Dietpi-2?
Thanks!
Hi,
you can use SAMBA or NFS to have a drive shared between both systems.
I understand. On Dietpi-2 I installed: 110 NFS Client: network file system client.
On Dietpi-1 in Dietpi-Drive_Manger I choose: NFS : Setup a connection for a NFS compatible file share
I get:
[FAILED] NFS mount failed with the following error output: │

you would need to install the NFS server functionality on the first system and export your share.
On server, install nfs-server. Then edit /etc/exports and add a line:
/mnt/backup/odroid 172.30.30.100(rw,async,no_root_squash,fsid=0,crossmnt,no_subtree_check)
Adjust the path to the desired and the IP to the one of the client.
Restart nfs-server dietpi-services restart nfs-kernel-server
Then on client use dietpi-drive_manager to create a new network drive, select NFS, fill in the IP of the server , and the mountpoint under /mnt
NFS server is available via software ID 109
