Access NFS share from Ubuntu VM with Truenas bond

[darkmatter68]

Hi,

When I try to access a NFS share on my Truenas to a Ubuntu VM running on my Truenas I am getting the message "no route to host".
(FYI: I have checked everything regarding the NFS share / VM setup before posting this question.)

I came across the following doc:-

https://www.truenas.com/docs/scale/scaletutorials/virtualization/accessingnasfromvm/ which seems to imply a bridge interface (e.g. br0) is required.

Before I go messing about with my Truenas configuration I would like 1 thing to be clarified ...

My primary network interface for Truenas is a BOND. Do I have to:-

1. unassign the IP address of the BOND interface
2. assign the BOND interface as a member of the BRIDGE interface
3. assign the original IP address to the BRIDGE
4. assign the BRIDGE interface to the VM

I just want to make sure I do not screw up my connection to the Truenas.

I am running: TrueNAS-SCALE-22.12.4.2


Many thanks in advance for your help/advice :)

Just to answer my own question: Yes those steps are correct :)

But ...

there is a step "0"

0. Make sure any VM's associated with the original bond connection are switched off & the NFS service is stopped.
