Set harness server up

Setup NFS

AFT applies Network file system to share /home/tester directory where images and other files used in flashing for PC-devices can be found.

Is NFS installed ?

To check if the NFS server is installed, we can do...

root@testing-harness:~# dpkg -l | grep nfs-kernel-server

How to install NFS ?

To install NFS these are the required packages...

root@testing-harness:~# aptitude install nfs-kernel-server
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  keyutils{a} libnfsidmap2{a} libtirpc1{a} nfs-common{a} nfs-kernel-server 
  rpcbind{a} 
0 packages upgraded, 6 newly installed, 0 to remove and 459 not upgraded.
Need to get 470 kB of archives. After unpacking 1 884 kB will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?]
