This assumes you have a NFS Share setup up.  If you do not you can follow this link.

Open up XenCenter click on add storage device button on the top.

Select NFS iso and hit next.

Connect XenServer to NFS

Enter in the name you want to call your repository
Connect XenServer to NFS 2

Next we add the share location which in my case is 192.168.200.250:/nfs  and hit Finish.

Connect XenServer to NFS 3

  1. Create the NFS Share directory. You can change the name “/nfs” to wherever and whatever you want. Just be sure to remember the path and name 
    mkdir /nfs
  2. Add the NFS Share to the /etc/exports file. Change the ip address to your NFS Servers ip address. 
    echo "/nfs 192.168.200.250/24(rw,sync,no_subtree_check)" >> /etc/exports
  3. Next we chmod /etc/rc.d/rc.nfsd and rc.rpc so that they can be executed to start the service 
    chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.nfsd
chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.rpc
  4. Start rpc and nfsd 
    /etc/rc.d/rc.nfsd start
/etc/rc.d/rc.rpc start
  5. Export the Share 
    exports -a
  6. Connect a Client and have fun
