Dell EMC Avamar for Windows Servers 19.7 User Guide
File system backups in a Windows Server 2019, 2016, or 2012 for SOFS or SMB cluster
Use the Windows Cluster File Server plug-in to back up file system data on shared storage in a Windows Server 2019, 2016, or 2012 for SOFS or SMB cluster. You can back up all file system data at one time, or you can back up individual clustered file servers, folders, and files.
You can back up both Scale-Out File Servers and clustered file servers for general use in a single on-demand or scheduled backup. However, the backup process creates two different shadow copy sets in the same backup, one for Scale-Out File Servers and one for the general file servers.
To back up data on a local volume of a cluster node, select the physical node as the client to back up, and use the Windows File System plug-in.
