> - Ran `ss -tulpn4 |grep mountd` on host B to see ports used by showmounts
> - The ports listed were blocked on host "A", so that showmount fails:

> /sbin/showmount --no-headers --exports $B
> rpc mount export: RPC: Unable to send; errno = Operation not permitted
>
> - Ran `pvesm status` on A and checked that the NFS storage is available
> - Created a VM on A with a disk image in the the NFS storage

> The later two operations would have failed without the changes here.
