I’m using Mayan within a Docker setup and it stores all document data in a local docker volume on the docker host. For my production environment I would like to improve the data storage concept in favor of better space and backup possibilities. So I’m planning to move Mayans document storage target to a NAS.
As there are many options to do that I wonder if there is a recommended way for a configuration:
-
What is the best mounting point?
- OS level (docker host)?
- docker volume level?
- Mayan’s config path?
-
Which is the best protocol to use?
- iSCSI?
- NFS
- SMB?
Any better solutions? In may case all components (docker host, NAS, …) are all in local networks, no cloud environment or remote servers are inveolved.
Best regards, Torsten
