Adding a Direct Volume
Each share in a direct volume attaches one or more of its own virtual directories to
real directories at back-end shares. These attach points are analogous to mount points
in NFS and network-drive connections in CIFS. The back-end directory trees are all
reachable from the same volume root.The volume does not record the contents of the
back-end shares, so it does not keep metadata or support storage policies. This is
called a presentation volume in the GUI.
