Let’s assume you have a ‘movie’ share on the EX4100 with IP address 192.168.0.100 and you want to NFS mount it on the PR4100.
In the EX4100 web UI, in the shares tab, enable NFS for the movie share. Eventually configure it to be writeable if you need it… but best to leave it off when you don’t need it.
Then ssh into the PR4100.
Create a mount point for the movie share, e.g. ex_movie
mkdir -p /mnt/ex_movie
Now mount the movie share on this mount point. Any NFS exported shares are available at /nfs.
mount 192.168.0.100:/nfs/movie /mnt/ex_movie
You should have access now to your EX4100 on your PR4100. Let’s see:
ls -l /mnt/ex_movie
In Plex, add a library with this mount point.
Make sure you unmount the directory when you want to reboot either of the NAS to prevent lockups.
umount /mnt/ex_movie
If you want this to happen automatically on boot / shutdown, you could put the mount / umount commands in the start.sh / stop.sh of one the apps in /shares/Volume_1/Nas_Prog … that let’s you toggle the mount from the web UI by enabling the app. Note that Plex updates often so I wouldn’t put it there as your changes are lost on app update.
Disclaimer: do at own risk etc…
