Include nfs module in the kernel of the VM

Hello,

I would like to host an NFS server on fly.io in order to mount the NFS share on other apps on fly.io for sharing some data between my different apps.

Is it possible to include the nfs and nfsd kernel module into the default kernel for the VMs created at fly.io?

Thank you in advance.

This is possible, but it takes us months to get to kernel changes. So I wouldn’t wait on it!

Your best bet is to try a usermode NFS server: https://github.com/nfs-ganesha/nfs-ganesha/wiki (Docker version)

  • Not starting NFS kernel daemon: no support in current kernel.
