With the Meeting Recorder service, Zoom Meetings Hybrid module users can record their meetings and store recordings locally using on-premise storage (NFS) connected to the Node Management server. This can be useful when it is necessary to record meetings, but need an alternative to recording to Zoom's Cloud or saving the recording to a local device. 

Note: This service can only be used with Hybrid Meetings running in Private mode.
