I believe NFSv4. On the machine that contains the physical disks (is that the "server" or the "NSF mount"?) the relevant line from /etc/fstab seems to be
UUID=bde58f42-4ac4-4763-b0a8-f83723f0e2a0 /home ext4 defaults 1 2
while on my front-end machine its
mseas-data2:/home /home nfs defaults 0 0
where mseas-data2 is the name of the machine that contains the physical disks. Note that it isn't just root that's becoming "nobody" but all the users
Thanks

We are running a cluster under CentOS 6.6. We recently attached a new NAS device, running CentOS 6.8 and rsync'd our user file system to it. We noticed that all the files were owned by nobody (with nobody as the group). We copied over the /etc/passwd and /etc/group files from our front-end server to our NAS server. If we log in to the NAS server we see the files owned by their correct owners. However, doing an ls from the front-end server or any of the compute nodes still shows the files owned by "nobody". We rebooted one of the compute nodes but it still sees the files owned by nobody.
a CentOS server isn't really a 'NAS device', as NAS implies an appliance storage device.
this is NFS? NFSv3, or NFSv4? what NFS options are on the server and on the NFS mount? quite often NFS servers force root to nobody.
