Unable to mount NFS Store on Vsphere Host(2012 Veeam Server)

Post by Delo123 »

Support ID Case # 00197743

We are unable to Mount the VPower NFS Store with our new Veeam Server. Mounting to the old 2008R2 Server is ok. Ip of the new Server has been added to Firewall exceptions. Have tried directly connecting to Hosts with the Vsphere Client instead of Vcenter.
We can ping and vmkping Veeamserver, and ping the Hosts from the Veeamserver.
New Veeam Server is running on 2012, Firewall disabled.

Call "HostDatastoreSystem.CreateNasDatastore" for object "ha-datastoresystem" on ESXi "gp-esx01" failed.
NFS mount gp-veeam02:/veeambackup_gp-veeam02 failed: The mount request was denied by the NFS server. Check that the export exists and that the client is permitted to mount it.

Guido, could you please tell if you're able to mount vPower NFS datastore manually?

For the detailed description of how you can manually mount Veeam vPower NFS, please see the following answer > How to use Veeam vPower NFS server?

Hope this helps.
Thanks.

Thanks guys, could solve it with a Tip from Support.

Actually the Vpower NFS Mount is mounted on the Windows Server where the Repository is when Transport was installed there.
So we shouldn|t point our Mountpoint to the Veeamserver but to the repository...
I was testing connectivity before actually doing a restore job when running into the issue.
If i simply had tried a restore, i would have noticed this sooner i guess.
Anyway, should somebody run into this....!
