Hi, Sam. Besides during (default) installation, the management server only needs to access the secondary storage NFS share if you are using vSphere since the management server propagates the systemvm.iso for VMware hosts. If you're using vSphere, just make sure the management server can reach the NFS server and mount the share. It doesn't need to be on the same network as the NFS server. Template uploading and downloading is handled by the SSVM and not the management server.
