Central Storage Mount (/psi.ch)

Mounts /psi.ch which gives Kerberos protected access to all network shares (NFS or CIFS/SMB/Windows) which have been configured/opened for this feature.

Configuration

In Hiera enable it with

base::enable_central_storage_mount: true

or disable it with

base::enable_central_storage_mount: false

On workstation type systems this is enabled by default starting with RHEL9

Adding a Share

For a new or exsting share find a suitable path below /psi.ch/group or /psi.ch/project and inform the NAS Team or the Linux Core Group.

Kerberos and Permanent Running Software

Checkout Permanent Kerberos with gssproxy and Password Keytab if you want to access this, e.g. with background processes without having to type passwords (kinit) regularly.

Debugging

Is autofs running and fine?

sudo systemctl status autofs
sudo journalctl -u autofs

Is the firewall blocking access to the file server?

For NFS shares, are there network access restrictions on server side for the share?
