Backup storage on an NFS share

General requirements are listed in General requirements.

To better understand how to calculate the hardware configuration for backup storage with the NFS share destination, consider the following example with RAM and CPU reservations.

If you have 1 node (1 system+metadata disk and 1 storage disk) and want to use it for backup storage, refer to the table below for the calculations.

Backup storage on an NFS share
Service The only node
System 4.5 GB, 1 core
Storage services

1 storage disk1, 1 metadata on system disk (each takes 0.5 GB and 0.2 cores), that is 1 GB and 0.4 cores in total

Backup Gateway 1 GB, 0.5 cores
Service reservations 6.5 GB of RAM and 1.9 cores
Minimum hardware configuration 8 GB of RAM and 4 cores
Recommended hardware configuration 8 GB of RAM and 6 cores
