Hello,

how can i use the NFS-Shared Storage für VZdumps?

I have setup a shared storage, but how can i setup it for backups?
Can i setup it over the Web Interface? I dont see anything to use the NFS Share for a backup.



Regards, Valle

just enter the full path of the nfs mount (check on the console, starts with /mnt/.......). future version will provide a drop down here.

Thanx, works now. Is it only avaible on Master Node? I dont findt it under the ther cluster nodes.

storage config is synced on all nodes, so you should see it also on the nodes. I will test this here.
 
Hi Tom,

storage.cfg is on all nodes, but the mount point /mnt/pve/backup-vm is only on the master node.

If have created a second note. As example nfs-test. The nfs share is only active on the masternode.
On the cluster nodes the nfs-test is not created in the /mnt/pve/ and not mounted.

On all Node are the storage.cfg synced.

Code:
nfs: nfs-test
    path /mnt/pve/nfs-test
    server 192.168.1.88
    export /nfs-test
    content images

On the NFS Server the export cfg files contains

Code:
/nfs-test    (no_root_squash,rw)
