Hi,

Using a shared filesystem such as NFS is indeed fine. Please see [1]. Don’t 
worry about naming conflicts among the files, the snapshotting process is smart 
enough to do the right thing. 

Note that, for disaster recovery, you can also snapshot off-premise to, for 
instance, an S3 bucket. 

Cheers,
Andrew
