Volumes are configured according to the requirements of the NAS server used. For the NDMP NAS Option to function correctly, you must configure at least one volume on the server serving as the data source of the backup operation.
NAS separates storage resources from network and application servers to simplify storage management and to provide file-level access to data, using standard protocols such as Network File System (NFS) or Common Internet File System (CIFS). A file system is located on the NAS server, and data is transferred to the client over standard network protocols. Depending on the operating system from which the volumes are to be accessed, CIFS shared directories and NFS exports must be configured with appropriate access rights.
