Why can't I open DMG files which reside on a read-only NFS filesystem?
I've discovered a strange problem... if I have disk image files (DMGs) which reside on a read-only NFS share, I cannot open these in Mac OS X 10.7.5. The same files open fine when accessed over AFP. However, trying to open them using hdiutil attach when they're on the NFS share results in "attach failed - Read-only file system":
bash-3.2# /usr/bin/hdiutil attach /Volumes/nfs_share/Some.dmg
hdiutil: attach failed - Read-only file system
Even if the AFP share is read-only, I can attach those same images. But for some reason, a read-only NFS share doesn't work.
Ultimately what I want to do is attach the images with a shadow file, to mount the read-only images as read-write. But this also fails the same way:
bash-3.2# /usr/bin/hdiutil attach /Volumes/nfs_share/Some.dmg -mountpoint /Somewhere -shadow /path/to/Some-Shadow
hdiutil: attach failed - Read-only file system
Again, this works perfectly if the image is served via AFP. It also works fine if the NFS share is read-write, but for security reasons I cannot do that.
How can I mount DMG files which reside on a read-only NFS share?

Solution 1:
I've been interested in this question since Nov 2012 and even set up a FreeNAS VM to reproduce the issue.
I eventually gave up but since the question has been resuscitated I will share what I found out back then and in the last hours (luckily I didn't delete the VM) and what I think the cause for this issue is. I have also found a workaround.
My setup
First of all, this is my test setup:
OS X 10.8.2 (sorry, no 10.7.5 around).
-
FreeNAS (FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE-p1)
(The OP's version is FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE-p7 - I couldn't find the same version.)
-
A NAS filesystem in
/mnt/raid:
-
A user named
netboot:
-
An AFP filesystem (
/mnt/raid/netboot) exported asnetboot:
(Note that it is configured read-only).
-
An NFS filesystem (same path as AFP filesystem, to match the OP's configuration:
/mnt/raid/netboot):
AFP works, NFS doesn't
I mounted the AFP read-only filesystem as user netboot using the Finder with ⌘K:
and mounted a DMG image file without any problems:
$ sudo rm /private/var/netboot/Library-Shadow
$ sudo /usr/bin/hdiutil attach /Volumes/netboot/p7zip-9.04-0.i386.dmg -notremovable -shadow /private/var/netboot/Library-Shadow -owners on -noverify -noautofsck -nobrowse
Password:
/dev/disk3 Apple_partition_scheme
/dev/disk3s1 Apple_partition_map
/dev/disk3s2 Apple_HFS /Volumes/p7zip.pkg
Then I unmounted it and mounted the read-only NFS filesystem (I also used ⌘K) and couldn't mount the DMG image file.
I think the problem is logged here:
CBSDBackingStore::setPermission: opening /Volumes/netboot/Lion.nbi/Library.dmg
CBSDBackingStore::OpenLockFriendly: mapping flags 0x00000000 -> 0x00000014 (locks are MANDATORY)
CBSDBackingStore:OpenLockFriendly: could not open with lock 30
Error 30 means (see man 2 intro):
30 EROFS Read-only file system. An attempt was made to modify a file or directory was made on a file system that was read-only at the time.
No surprise here, it is indeed a read-only filesystem, but... when mounted over AFP it works, why?
Because Apple's NFS implementation has some problems with locking. As stated in this post at gluster.org:
OS X does a phenominal amount of file locking (some would say, needlessly so) and has always been really sensitive to the configuration of locking on the NFS servers. So much so that if you randomly pick an NFS server in a large enterprise, true success is pretty unlikely.
In my setup, the NFS server (that is, the FreeNAS VM) was suddenly irresponsive (from my Mac's /var/log/system.log):
Mar 15 15:35:04 avallone.local rpc.lockd[8119]: Lockd got unexpected signal 20

CBSDBackingStore::OpenLockFriendly: mapping flags 0x00000000 -> 0x00000014 (locks are MANDATORY)
CBSDBackingStore:OpenLockFriendly: could not open with lock 5
Error 5 means (again from man 2 intro):
5 EIO Input/output error. Some physical input or output error occurred. This error will not be reported until a subsequent operation on the same file descriptor and may be lost (over written) by any subsequent errors.
which isn't suprising at all, the NFS filesystem was gone.
Workaround
A workaround (tested on OS X 10.8) is to mount NFS with options nolocks,locallocks. As explained in the post at gluster.org already mentioned:
Fortunately, there is a fix: just turn off network locking. You can do it by adding the "nolocks,locallocks" options in the advanced options field of the Disk Utility NFS mounting UI, but this is painful if you do a lot of them, and doesn't help at all with /net. You can edit /etc/auto_master to add these options to the /net entry, but it doesn't affect other mounts - however I do recommend deleting the hidefromfinder option in auto_master. If you want to fix every automount, edit /etc/autofs.conf and search for the line that starts with AUTOMOUNTD_MNTOPTS=. These options get applied on every mount. Add nolocks,locallocks and your world will be faster and happier after you reboot.
I manually mounted 172.16.54.186:/mnt/raid/netboot and it worked flawlessly:
$ sudo rm /private/var/netboot/Library-Shadow
$ sudo mount -o nolocks,locallocks,ro 172.16.54.186:/mnt/raid/netboot /tmp/mnt
$ sudo /usr/bin/hdiutil attach /tmp/mnt/p7zip-9.04-0.i386.dmg -notremovable -shadow /private/var/netboot/Library-Shadow -owners on -noverify -noautofsck -nobrowse
/dev/disk6 Apple_partition_scheme
/dev/disk6s1 Apple_partition_map
/dev/disk6s2 Apple_HFS /Volumes/p7zip.pkg
I also edited /etc/auto_master like this:
+auto_master # Use directory service
#/net -hosts -nobrowse,hidefromfinder,nosuid
/net -hosts -nosuid,nolocks,locallocks
/home auto_home -nobrowse,hidefromfinder
/Network/Servers -fstab
/- -static
stopped and started automountd and autofsd:
$ sudo launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.automountd.plist
$ sudo launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.autofsd.plist
$ sudo launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.autofsd.plist
$ sudo launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.automountd.plist
and worked like a charm:
$ cd /net/172.16.54.186/mnt/raid/netboot
$ ls
Network Trash Folder Temporary Items p7zip-9.04-0.i386.dmg
$ sudo rm /private/var/netboot/Library-Shadow
