Managing storage containers
After initialization, the DR Series system contains a single default container named backup. Containers function like a shared file system, which can be assigned a connection type of None (to be defined later), NFS/CIFS, or RDA (includes RDS clients). Containers can then be accessed using NFS, CIFS, or RDA.
Creating a storage container
