I have a request to configure a CIFS share on FLR-C file system. The initial required space is 25TB and this will grow 5TB yearly. This needs to be replicated using VNX replicator. I have been reading on NMFS feature and it looks like it can meet my requirement. I am thinking of creating multiple 5TB FLR-C fs and mounting it in NMFS. I am also planning to use a VDM for this FLR-C fs.

Has anyone cinfigured NMFS using FLR-C file system and sucessfully replicated the NMFS? Did you mount it in a VDM or does the NMFS has to be mounted on server_2?

Please let me know if there is any other alternate method available to have more than 16TB space in a single share using FLR-C fs.
