6.
Verify the cache daemon started properly.
$ service cachefilesd status

Checking status of FilesCache daemon cachefilesd
7.
Configure an NFS mount for the DGX-1.
a) Edit the filesystem tables configuration.
sudo vi /etc/fstab
b) Add a new line for the NFS mount, using the local mount point of /mnt.
<nfs_server>:<export_path> /mnt nfs
rw,noatime,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,nolock,tcp,intr,fsc,nofail 0 0
‣
/mnt is used here as an example mount point.
‣
Consult your Network Administrator for the correct values for <nfs_server>
and <export_path>.
‣
The nfs arguments presented here are a list of recommended values based on
typical use cases. However, "fsc" must always be included as that argument
specifies use of FS-Cache.
c) Save the changes.
8.
Verify the NFS server is reachable.
ping <nfs_server>
Use the server IP address or the server name provided by your network
administrator.
9.
Mount the NFS export.
sudo mount /mnt
/mnt is the example mount point used in step 7.
10.
Verify caching is enabled.
cat /proc/fs/nfsfs/volumes
Look for the text FSC=yes in the output.
Upon rebooting, the NFS should be mounted and cached on the DGX-1.
