Include nfs-utils in ITA install offline

[lvg]

Please include the nfs-utils package in the offline ITA installation.
As backup we use a extenal storage on a NFS server. To mount this at /data/backup we need the nfs-utils package. It would be nice if that is included by default on ITA install. Otherwise we have a lot of work to get this package installed.

Hello

The offline iso for ITA 9.2.4 includes three installer scripts.

* install-open-vm-tools.sh   for installing open VM tools for VMware tools integration

* install-cifs-utils.sh  for installing cifs mounting tools to mount a windows share

* install-nfs-utils.sh   for installing the nfs tools for mounting NFS filesystems

They can be found on the offline iso if you mount it to your ITA server under the dco-install folder.

So if I were to mount the ISO file to my server to /cdrom, I would find these scripts in /cdrom/dco-install

You can run them by  /cdrom/dco-install/install-nfs-utils.sh
