Overview
The Network File System (NFS) connector in DryvIQ allows you to analyze, migrate, copy, and synchronize files to your on-premise Windows-based network file shares from cloud storage repositories. The first step is to create the NFS connection by providing the connection information required for DryvIQ to connect to the file share. The NFS Network File System connector in DryvIQ has specific permission-related requirements beyond that of the connector Identity. Additional configuration may be needed to allow DryvIQ to use of the NFS Network File System Connector.

In DryvIQ, NFS refers to the Network File System connectors offered and not the NFS protocol itself. The DryvIQ Network File System connectors work with CIFS, NFS, and SMB protocols. |
