Configuration of NetHDD of NVR with under Windows 7

The haneWin NFS server does not have quotas per exported NFS share and cannot specify shares size. The size of my share was small (55GBytes on an old USB drive) and it was correctly identified from both the camera and the NVR firmware. The camera formatted the share successfully as SMB, the NVR failed to format it through the NFS protocol.

Another question is: Does the NVR support SMB?

Well, certainly neither of my 7816N NVRs do - on 3.0.8 and 3.3.4 firmware, just NFS and IP SAN.
That volume size of 55GB for the NVR should be OK I'd have thought.
When the format failed - were there any useful log entries on the NVR?
Did you by any chance use the same share for both the camera and the NVR?
If so, that would cause some confusion ... and probably fail.
 
The message logged is "Remote: Initialize HDD" and then nothing. I do get a failure email as well. There is no failure message logged.
I am using two different and distinct names for the share names, for the reasons you mentioned.
 
As far as I know - IP SAN is an enterprise oriented storage solution, where a storage array can provision low-level chunks of it out to servers and other devices as managed storage. Not something for the domestic environment.
NFS is one of the original Unix file sharing protocols - very basic and simple.
