[1]
NFS server is required to be running on your LAN, refer to here.
On this example, configure [/var/lib/cinder-backup] directory on [nfs.srv.world] as a backup directory.
[2] Configure Storage Node.
root@storage:~#
apt-get -y install cinder-backup nfs-common
root@storage:~#
vi /etc/idmapd.conf
# line 6: uncomment and change to own domain name

Domain =
srv.world
root@storage:~#
vi /etc/cinder/cinder.conf
# add follows into [DEFAULT] section

backup_driver = cinder.backup.drivers.nfs
backup_mount_point_base = $state_path/backup_nfs
backup_share = nfs.srv.world:/var/lib/cinder-backup
root@storage:~#
systemctl restart cinder-backup

root@storage:~#
chown -R cinder. /var/lib/cinder/backup_nfs

[3] Get Backup for Cinder Volumes of yours. It's OK to work on any node. (This example is on Control Node)
