The instructions provided with our Mountable Backups service for Virtual and Hybrid servers will not work on CentOS 7 due to the operating systems lack of portmap. This service was replaced with rpcbind.
To set up your mountable backup space you’ll need to run the following commands:
mkdir /backups
chkconfig rpcbind on
service rpcbind start
You’ll then need to install NFS Utils as this is not available with CentOS 7 by default.
yum install nfs-utils
From there, the last steps provided in the control panel will work. Below is an example of what this will look like:
echo "1234567-backups.vps-10.com:/backups/46.32.000.00/backups nfs rw,hard,intr,noexec,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,nfsvers=4,noatime,_netdev,nolock 0 0" >> /etc/fstab; mount -a
You can check that this set up correctly by running:
df -h
The output will look something like this:
1234567-backups.vps-10.com:/backups/12.345.6.789 8.4T 7.3T 882G 90% /backups
The usage shown here will show the disk space for our backup server, not the quota you have available.
