I have the NFS server working nicely and doing what I expect it to do, with a lot of help from this list, EXCEPT data is not being put in the right partition!
Who is the client putting data in? How are the nfs exports mounted on this client?
Yes, this is DF from the server.
Can I fix this without starting from a new Fedora 27 installation or completely replacing NFS? Df shows the following:
Can I assume this 'df' is on the server? Can you show the same on the client?

As you can see it is putting the stored data in "/" [19G in a 49G space]. Those partitions were setup selecting "custom/standard partitions] in the installer. It looks to me like I should've used the 2.7T of space in "/" but that's not easy for me to do now.
Looking at the output of 'mount' on the client will show how the exported nfs
directories (on the server) are mounted on the client.
The exported directories from the server are defined in /etc/exports (on the server).
The mount points are defined in /etc/fstab (on the client).
I have a second 3TB drive installed and idle in which I can start over with a new installation if that would be preferable ...
I do not expect that a new install is required, just sorting out the directories and
moving the current data to the correct place (on the server).
Help appreciated,
Bob
