What is the pros and cons?Not enough details. Are you backing up the VM from hyper-v? Are you backing up the VM from within the VM? Are you backing up the files on the VM or making an image/snapshot? Does $storage-provider have a preferred protocol? NFS typically can be expanded on the fly if the needs increase. iSCSI typically needs ?work? like expanding the partition then expanding the filesystem when more space is needed.>

I need to restore then quickly and individual.> Does $storage-provider have a preferred protocol?No.> NFS typically can be expanded on the fly if the needs increase. > iSCSI typically needs ?work? like expanding the partition then expanding > the filesystem when more space is needed.Can i create a nfs partition with lvm and in future extend the partition with another hd i.e?
