5.6.1.3 Configuring the NFS Settings
Network File System (NFS) enables the MediaPack to access a remote server’s shared
files and directories and to handle them as if they’re located locally. A file system, the NFS
is independent of machine types, OSs, and network architectures. Up to five different NFS
file systems can be configured.
NFS is utilized by the MediaPack to load the cmp, ini and configuration files via the
Automatic Update mechanism (refer to Section 10.3 on page 263).
Note that an NFS file server can share multiple file systems. There must be a separate row
for each remote file system shared by the NFS file server that needs to be accessed by the
MediaPack.

To configure the NFS Settings parameters, take these 7 steps:
1. Open the ‘Application Settings’ screen (Advanced Configuration menu > Network
Settings > Application Settings option); the ‘Application Settings’ screen is
displayed (Figure 5-36).
2. Open the NFS Table screen by clicking the arrow sign (-->) to the right of the NFS
label; the NFS Table screen is displayed (Figure 5-37).

3. To add a remote NFS file system, select an available line number from the 'Line
Number' drop-down list.
4. Click the Add an Empty Line button; an empty line appears.
5. Configure the NFS Settings according to Table 5-38.
6. Click the Apply New Settings button; the remote NFS file system is mounted
immediately. Check the Syslog server for the ‘NFS mount was successful’ message.
7. To save the changes so they are available after a power fail, refer to Section 5.10.2 on
page 205.
Note: To avoid terminating calls in progress, a row must not be deleted or
modified while the board is currently accessing files on that remote
NFS file system.
