Subject: [PATCH manager v2] fix #6855: ui: storage: add mount options field for nfs amd smb/cifs
Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2026 17:03:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260723150316.168440-1-e.huhsovitz@proxmox.com> (raw)
Add a text field for custom mount options to the NFS and CIFS
storage configuration dialogs. This allows users to configure
advanced mount parameters (like 'nconnect', 'rdma', or 'seal')
directly via the web interface, without needing to use the CLI
or manually edit storage.cfg.
When nfs version or mount option is being changed:
Display a hint to the user that changes will require
remounting the storage to take effect.
Reduce the usage of legacy JS practices, such as 'var' & "+ string
concatination" in affected functions.

v1: https://lore.proxmox.com/pve-devel/20260721121334.115027-1-e.huhsovitz@proxmox.com/
This v2 patch addresses comments made in [1].
changes v1->v2:
- add dynamic UI hint when user changes mount config or nfs version
to inform them them that a remount is required for changes
to take effect.
- update emptyText placeholders to align with existing PVE UI
conventions
comments that have not been implemented:
- reboot after passsing invalid option:
Regarding the concern about correcting an invalid option
(e.g., port=42069) and the storage failing to reconnect:
I attempted to reproduce this behavior in my test environment but was unable
to do so.
In my testing, correcting the option and saving successfully updated the
configuration, and the storage reconnected after a few seconds.
If this auto-reconnection behavior is indeed a reproducible edge case in
specific scenarios, I believe it would be best addressed in a separate,
dedicated patch.
- automatic re-mount:
I made the deliberate decision not to implement automatic re-mounting upon
configuration changes in this patch. Automatically triggering a remount could
introduce unnecessary complexity and risk disrupting active I/O operations
(reads/writes) if a user modifies options while the storage is currently in
use by running guests or backup jobs.
