Hello,
Is it possible backup to remote NAS (NFS, SAMBA, iSCSI )?
Do I need manual mount in terminal or there is some way in GUI ?
 
hi,

it's possible, but not via the GUI at the moment.

you can mount your share on the terminal and create a datastore on the mounted path for this.

pvesm add cifs serverbackup_myserver --server 192.168.42.1 --share ServerBackup --username mybackupuser --password mypassword --smbversion 2.1

Most NAS systems are quite slow when SMB 3.0 with encryption is enabled, thus the restriction to v2.1 which is IMHO sufficiently secure for an internal network.
