mount.nfs: mount system call failed

Question

I am trying to mount hdfs on my local machine running Ubuntu using the following command :---

sudo mount -t  nfs  -o vers=3,proto=tcp,nolock 192.168.170.52:/ /mnt/hdfs_mount/

But I am getting this error:-

mount.nfs: mount system call failed

Output for

rpcinfo -p 192.168.170.52

is

        100000    4   tcp    111  portmapper

        100003    3   tcp   2049  nfs

Output for

showmount -e 192.168.170.52

is

Export list for 192.168.170.52:

I also tried by adding

<property>
<name>hadoop.proxyuser.root.groups</name>
<value>*</value>
</property>
<property>
<name>hadoop.proxyuser.root.hosts</name>
<value>*</value>
</property>

in my core-site.xml file located in /etc/hadoop/conf.pseudo. But it did not work.

Output for :-

sudo mount -v -t  nfs  -o vers=3,proto=tcp,nolock 192.168.170.52:/ /mnt/hdfs_mount/

is:---

mount.nfs: timeout set for Thu Jun 29 09:46:30 2017

Please help me with this.

what @84104 is saying is true but I manage to start it with following config/steps :

install nfs

change /etc/hadoop/hdfs-site.xml

<property>
  <name>hadoop.proxyuser.YOUR_HOSTNAME_NAME.hosts</name>
  <value>*</value>
</property>

<property>
  <name>nfs.superuser</name>
  <value>spark</value>
</property>

change /etc/hadoop/core-site.xml

<property>
  <name>hadoop.proxyuser.root.groups</name>
  <value>*</value>
</property>
<property>
  <name>hadoop.proxyuser.root.hosts</name>
  <value>*</value>
</property>

stop hadoop
start hadoop
mount -t nfs -o vers=3,proto=tcp,nolock,noacl,sync YOUR_HOSTNAME_NAME:/ /data/hdfs/ -v

mount.nfs: mount system call failed
