without clearing the share of data first.

Using an NFS Mount
Because problems can occur with your NAS devices that would adversely affect appliance behavior, be
sure to use the Backup task to back up your appliance configuration before using External Storage to
configure the appliance to use a NFS mount. This will help ensure that, should you encounter problems
with the NFS mount, you can easily restore your appliance to an operational state.
