<y NFS is storing data in "/" instead of "home", what do i have wrong?
'df -h" shows the following:

  /dev/mapper/fedora_localhost--live-root   69G   67G     0 100% /
tmpfs                                    1.8G  8.0K  1.8G   1% /tmp
/dev/sda2                                976M  254M  655M  28% /boot
/dev/mapper/fedora_localhost--live-home  3.6T  4.8G  3.4T   1% /home  

I need to fix it. I don't know where to look for my mistake, Obviously I
want to store files in the 3.4 TB partition not root.


I assume the above is for your NFS server.   "showmount -e" should
show you what directory is exported call it "<some_path>/nfs_share".   

Assuming you want to move the exported directory to "/home/nfs_share", 
there should be an entry for  "<some_path>/nfs_share" in "/etc/exports".   
If you want to avoid changing the client mount commands, you can use a 
symbolic link:

0.  Ask your clients to stop using the share
1.   sudo exportfs -u  "<some_path>/nfs_share"
This disables the share so you can move it

2.   sudo mv  "<some_path>/nfs_share" /home
this should free some space in the root partition

3.   sudo ln -s "/home/nfs_share" "<some_path>"
this should avoid the need for any NFS configuration
changes

4. sudo exportsfs  "<some_path>/nfs_share"

This may be an oversimplification, e.g. if you have separate shares 
for each user.   If this isn't what you need, show us the output of 
"showmount -e" and the contents of "/etc/exports".
