The selected RDS device is removed from NVBU. The RDS container can now be removed from the DR Series system.
Backing Up Data on the RDS Container Using NVBU
You must back up data on the RDS container (available on the DR Series systems) using NVBU. Before you can back up
data using the RDS protocol, you must create an RDS container on the DR Series system and add that container as an
RDA device on NVBU. For more information see,
