Dear All,
Good afternoon
I  was trying to take backup of VM to NFS /CIFS share, We have
created the
NFS and CIFS share and it shows in "df -h" , but do not show in the
storage
drop down  when I choose the backup of VM instance

But when I give a df-h , I get the results

oot at server-1:~# df -h
Filesystem

378G     0  378G   0% /dev
tmpfs

tmpfs                                    5.0M

76G     0   76G   0% /run/user/0


So from the df -h , we can see the CIFS and NFS, but through the web
interfaces, backup option do not show them in the drop down menu.
I am thinking in this situation, to make use command line and run the
backup so that I can specify the location (cifs or nfs share) to which
I
can  copy the disk image



Thanks
Joseph John
