NFS mount error in IT Advisor

If the NFS utility is not installed on your IT Advisor or DCO server, you'll see an error when you try to add NFS as a mount type.

Failed to save mount : NFS Error - mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on xxxx, missing codepage or helper program, or other error (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might need a /sbin/mount. helper program) In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so.

Resolution
SSH into the server and run the following command to install the required packages:

sudo yum -y install nfs-utils

Note: The ITA or DCO server must have internet access.
