Backup Storage
Published 07 December 2022
To provide backups for images you can use an NFS or SMB file share location. The file share will be mounted into the application and the backup file will be read directly from there during image creation operations.
When creating a data image you need to provide the backup file path relative to the file share root. (See data image definition examples for more details).
File shares are only used for images created from backups
The file share configured for Redgate Clone will only be accessed and mounted for usage by the product if you are creating a Data image from a backup.
In other words, file shares will not be touched when creating empty data images.
