Ensure that you use NFS2 or NFS3 for NFS network share.
○ CIFS: -f system_config.xml -i 192.168.0.130 -n sambashare/config_files -s 2 -u
user -p password -d 1 -t 400
○ HTTP: -f system_config.xml -i 192.168.1.101 -s http -n http_share
○ HTTPS: -f system_config.json -i 192.168.1.101 -s https
●
IPAddress (-i) — Indicates the IP address of the file share.

The following is an example of a static DHCP reservation from a dhcpd.conf file:
host my_host {
host my_host {
hardware ethernet b8:2a:72:fb:e6:56;
fixed-address 192.168.0.211;
option host-name "my_host";
option myname " -f r630_raid.xml -i 192.168.0.1 -n /nfs -s 0 -d 0 -t 300";
}
NOTE: After editing the dhcpd.conf file, make sure to restart the dhcpd service to apply the changes.
