Looking at the DataMiner Help, we can define a Local and Network path as DMS Data Location. Is there any other option available e.g. SFTP server to store a DataMiner backup?

Hi Karel,

Like Ive mentioned this is not supported by default, but you could use a third-party tool like SSHFS-Win to map the SFTP drive to a Windows Drive. The network path will look like this \\sshfs\[sftpuser]@[sftphost]. You can then configure DataMiner to copy to this drive, which should then automatically upload the backup file to the SFTP server. Note I haven't tested this with DataMiner though.

Hi Jens,

Is it possible that I use an EFS or NFS in AWS and configure the DM to backup to AWS?

what would you suggest if I want to use cloud for network backup’s
