Showmount Command Fails

The File Storage service supports the showmount -e command, but it must be enabled before it can be used.

Once enabled, you can use the showmount -e command to show a list of NFS exports available from a specific mount target IP address.

For example, $ showmount -e 10.0.0.0

To enable the command, you must create a security list rule in the subnet containing the mount target. The rule must be a stateful ingress rule for UDP traffic with a Destination Port Range of 111.

For more information about this command, see the Linux manual page about showmount.

Important

Only showmount -e is supported. No other options are supported, and the -e option must be included.
