Permission issues when using podman with NFS persistent volume
Issue
- When running a container with Podman or when running a POD inside RHOCP which uses Podman with a persistent volume backed by a Network File System (NFS), I get any of the following errors:
- Generic
permission deniederrors operation not permittedError: cannot setup namespace using newuidmap: exit status 1error from newuidmap: newuidmap: write to uid_map failed: Operation not permittederror from newgidmap: newgidmap: write to gid_map failed: Operation not permitteduser namespaces are not enabled in /proc/sys/user/max_user_namespaces"open of uid_map failed: Permission denied"
- Generic
- The NFS mount point has 777 permissions
- I've followed RHOCP documentation for configuring NFS Persistent storage using NFS
- I've followed any of these KCSs to fix the problem on the NFS server side
