Hello everyone,
I need you help because I'm not able to find any solution to my problem.
I have added a complete cluster (8 esx hosts) to my datacentre and now I'm trying to connect each host to my NFS share (on Server 2003)
I know that the problem does not come from the NFS share because I have many host already connected to it.
When I try to connect the host to the NFS share through the VC, I receive this message:
Error during the configuration of the host: NFS Error: Unable to Mount filesystem: Unable to connect to NFS server
When I try to connect it through the service console, I receive this message:
# esxcfg-nas -a ISOs -o sd07cfap94 -s /ISOs
Connecting to NAS volume: ISOs
Unable to connect to NAS volume ISOs: NFS Error: Unable to Mount filesystem: Unable to connect to NFS server
Here's the log in /var/log/vmkernel

Other important information:
-I'm able to ping and vmkping the nfs server from the host.
-The nfsClient is open in the firewall
Here's the showmount command result:

When I try to connect it through the service console, I receive this message:
Did you enable security profile to allow NFS client on the ESX host?

Hum... No... How can I enable security profile?

From VI client, go to configuration, security profile. Click properties. Scroll down to NFS client. Enable it.

Yes, it was already enabled.
