Yes, and you have probably provided what I was looking for, I'll try
exporting it as you suggest, probably tomorrow and report back.

I've got this working except
# rsync -avr /home/exports/ /mnt/test/backups/
produces copies of directories devoid of files.
It looks like I have to do:
# rsync -avr /home/exports/* /mnt/test/backups/
The -r is supposed to get everything recursively but but it did not get
the files without the "*" ...
With your help I had enough confidence to experiment with the NFS
exports and the backup disk appears to be working as I wanted. /dev/sdb1
appears to have a complete copy of the data stored on /dev/sdb1 for a
backup. And I can access it from an Fedora 27 workstation.
I am still wondering why rsync did not copy everything recursively
without the asterisk?
Thanks for the help,
Bob
