About NFS

Network File System (NFS) is a distributed filesystem protocol that enables users to access and manage files on remote servers over a network as if those files were stored locally on their own computers. BrickStor SP supports NFS versions 3, 4.0, 4.1, and 4.2.

The NFS Home Page is divided into two sections:

  • Toolbar - This contains controls to filter the list of current NFS shares, create a new NFS-enabled Dataset, customize the visible grid fields, and export data to CSV, Excel, PDF, or for printing.

  • Dataset Table - This displays all NFS enabled datasets on the appliance with varying information fields depending on the filter.
