Who is the client putting data in? How are the nfs exports mounted on

From the client /etc/fstab:
192.168.1.86:/exports/home/ /mnt/test/ nfs4 defaults 0 0
Can I fix this without starting from a new Fedora 27 installation or
completely replacing NFS? Df shows the following:
Can I assume this 'df' is on the server? Can you show the same on the
client?
Yes, this is DF from the server.
$ df -h

tmpfs 1.8G 32K 1.8G 1% /dev/shm

/dev/mapper/fedora-home 2.7T 4.8G 2.5T 1% /home
As you can see it is putting the stored data in "/" [19G in a 49G
space]. Those partitions were setup selecting "custom/standard
partitions] in the installer. It looks to me like I should've used
the 2.7T of space in "/" but that's not easy for me to do now.
Looking at the output of 'mount' on the client will show how the
exported nfs
directories (on the server) are mounted on the client.
The exported directories from the server are defined in /etc/exports
(on the server).
The mount points are defined in /etc/fstab (on the client).
[root@Box10 bobg]# mount 192.168.1.86:/exports/home/ /mnt/test
192.168.1.86:/exports/home/ on /mnt/test type nfs
# mount shows this for this server:
mount 192.168.1.86:/exports/home/ on /mnt/test type nfs
I guess it boils down to how do I tell NFS to store data in /home
instead of "/"? I've been looking at this and can't see what to change,
or maybe it can';t be fixed that way?
I have a second 3TB drive installed and idle in which I can start
over with a new installation if that would be preferable ...
I do not expect that a new install is required, just sorting out the
directories and
moving the current data to the correct place (on the server).
Help appreciated,
Bob
