Nebula NFS for XVM Storage

The Nebula System can mount an NFS file system to isolate the storage of Instances-xvm machines and enable the Vizor Cluster engine, which supports shared storage, simplifies migrations, and addresses fail-safe (Disaster Recovery) operation challenges. XVM Storage is commonly used in on-premises environments with one or more data centers for VDI solutions, similar to VMware or Citrix setups.

Implementing XVM Storage is not a requirement; you can still create Instances-xvm machines using the Sky Node storage system without a shared storage mount, which is often preferred in many cloud and hybrid environments. However, this setup may lead to longer migration times and may not be suitable for Disaster Recovery (D&R) scenarios.

NFS Server Requirements

Any NFS storage system can be used; however, we recommend the following setup for optimal performance:

• Minimum of 32 GB RAM
  
  
• Minimum of 8-core CPU
  
  
• Minimum of 10 GB network bandwidth
