Overview of universal shares
The universal share feature provides data ingest into an existing NetBackup deduplication pool (MSDP) or a supported Cohesity appliance using an NFS or a CIFS (SMB) share.
Both universal shares and MSDP use deduplication and compression.
Space efficiency is achieved by storing this data directly into an existing NetBackup-based Media Server Deduplication Pool.
For more information about universal shares, see the NetBackup Deduplication Guide.
