add ISCSI disk or shared folder for backup

[Blisk]

I am trying to add iscsi or shared folder on NAS to proxmox. But it is not possible at all, Don' know what I am doing wrong. In any way I can not find in Backup section a disk to make backup there.

You need to manually create a Volume Group on the LUN first, if you want to add this particular LUN as LVM storage

I would avoid using a block lun for this. Whats the make/model of your NAS?

SMB/CIFS and NFS are all enabled.

perfect! now all you need is to set the nfs share in pve storage, as described here:
