    We can't say what you're doing wrong since you haven't said what you're doing (with regards to the NFS configuration). The NFS server is obviously not responding properly, so you should start investigating log files. If you restart the NFS server, make sure to unmount the NFS share on the client first (if possible), then remount it. Commented Jun 13, 2018 at 7:48

  • I also tried showmount -e 172.21.215.101 i got clnt_create: RPC: Port mapper failure - Timed out Commented Jun 13, 2018 at 7:52
  • The mount on the client is /mnt, not /var/nfs/general. That's why you get that error from umount. Commented Jun 13, 2018 at 8:08
