Trouble with .tar creation over NFS mount
Hello,
I am trying to backup a directory to an NFS mount. But after mounting the "tar" command is failing.
1. Created folder for mount point: test1
2. Mounted desired mount:
[root@server_name1 ~]# mount -t nfs server_name2:/backup/WMSAPP_backup -w /test1/
[root@server_name1 ~]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

[root@servera-name1 ~]# tar cvf /test1/app_scope.tar /apps/scope/
tar: /test1/app_scope.tar: Cannot open: Permission denied
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
A. Is there a different way of mounting where we can pass credentials. I read somewhere that we do not need credentials to mount as NFS.
B. Is there a different tar option that we can use...
THanks in advance for help.
