Manage Network Shares
SMB is available with the following file system formats: ext4, XFS, NTFS, HFS+, and
exFAT.
Network volume credentials can be assigned to SMB shares.
NFS is compatible with ext4 and XFS formats only. Note—ext4 and XFS are not
native file formats for macOS and Windows. They are recommended for Lyve
Mobile Arrays that are only used for network shares. Lyve Mobile Arrays formatted
ext4 or XFS should not be directly attached to a host via Thunderbolt or USB.
After enabling NFS, you can limit access to a share by host IP address.
