We have the Network Share backup client that can protect NFS exports. See the documentation here - https://documentation.commvault.com/11.24/expert/92634_nfs_exports.html
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks
Thank you,
As I understand from the KB, I must first install a Linux server and then mount the NFS export from the EMC VNX array?
Yes, NFS exports can only be backed up from a Linux server acting as the access node. If you have an existing Linux media agent in the environment you could use that as the access node.
Thanks for your answer.
Thanks,
Hi
Apologies for the delayed response. You do not need to install a Media Agent, all we need is a FileSystem agent installed.
If you have a Linux MA already, you could leverage this machine as an access node (many customers choose to do this as it doesnt require any additional software to deploy and the MA is typically a powerful box)
Follow the steps here to deploy and configure - https://documentation.commvault.com/11.24/expert/92634_nfs_exports.html
Thank you
