Description of problem: Customer would prefer to mount NFS share using credentials for secure access. Per docs, https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.5/install_config/persistent_storage/persistent_storage_nfs.html#nfs-volume-security, this is not supported. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.5 How reproducible: Customer verified. Docs do not show this as being an option. Steps to Reproduce: From Customer: "how do we mount a NFS share that needs credentials to be accessed? Example, if i mount the share on a node i'd do: # yum install cifs-utils # mkdir /mount # echo "//sacfs1/data /mount cifs defaults,username=werner,password=mypassword,context=system_u:object_r:svirt_sandbox_file _t:s0 0 0" >> /etc/fstab # mount -a # df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on //sacfs1/data 60G 38G 23G 63% /mount Then, the share is successfully mounted and I could mount "/mount" into a pod using a hostPath volume for a pod that runs in this node. However, as do not want to use hostPath as each node needs to be statically configured I need to use the NFS plugin. This way and with the attached configuration, I get errors (attached)." Actual results: See above and attachments. Expected results: Customer would prefer to use credentials for secure access. Additional info: Adding attachments from Customer as additional private comments.
With the introduction of OpenShift 4, Red Hat has delivered or roadmapped a substantial number of features based on feedback by our customers. Many of the enhancements encompass specific RFEs which have been requested, or deliver a comparable solution to a customer problem, rendering an RFE redundant. This bz (RFE) has been identified as a feature request not yet planned or scheduled for an OpenShift release and is being closed. If this feature is still an active request that needs to be tracked, Red Hat Support can assist in filing a request in the new JIRA RFE system, as well as provide you with updates as the RFE progress within our planning processes. Please open a new support case: https://access.redhat.com/support/cases/#/case/new Opening a New Support Case: https://access.redhat.com/support/cases/#/case/new As the new Jira RFE system is not yet public, Red Hat Support can help answer your questions about your RFEs via the same support case system.
