Well, I thought it wasn't a very safe thing to do. Their network
administrator (the guy who buys machines, schedules backups, etc.)
suggested looking into NFS storage. I think he just wanted to keep his
backup/restore plans simple (do it all on the network applicance) and
doesn't realize how a database server reads and writes to disks,
and NFS gets in the way.
