This will be a long way ...

To understand the general concept, you better start off looking at some youtube videos:

1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HoziLvZ0Vg

2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zc8EPIISeCw

Then download the NW documentation (full PDF portfolio). The Admin Guide is what you will read most.

Next install NW on a test system. It will run for 90 days w/o license. BTW - compared with VEEAM you will love how fast a NW installation will be

Create a local disk (aka AFTD, Advanced File Type device). Then label a media for the pool Default.

Now you are ready to 'play' with the software before you make changes in the productive environment.
