Prolog information
CMS supports backups to network mount points on all deployments.
As a system administrator, you are responsible for the proper configuration of network mount points and connectivity to the CMS server. Ensure that the CMS server detects your network mount point and that you can perform read and write operations to or from the mount point. Determine if any security violations will occur before creating shared mount points and allowing other systems on the network to access them.
When using NFS mounted directories:
  • The NFS mount point must be accessible from the CMS server.
  • The directory path used when administering an NFS backup device must exist on the NFS server.
The following procedures provide basic information about configuring the NFS server and the CMS server to support upgrade extracts to NFS servers.
