Hi-  
I have my Cluster configured with 3 nodes, and all of them are installed in Ubuntu servers. I would like to take a snapshots and move it to a shared folder which is located in a Windows Server. I understood from the documentation to provide the UNC path of the Windows server, but I have a question how do I send the Windows Server Credentials in the Path.repo ? Could someone please let me know. Thanks !
