My application is running on IBM WebSphere Application Server. it has a JSP which displays a link to download a zip file. The zip file is on NFS whose local mount point will be mounted on Application server. I read many articles which say NFS mounted on server is as good as accessing the local File System. So my ask is

1. will a href with absolute path to file suffice to download or access the file located on NFS. something like below? <a class=\"download\" href=\"/auth/secure/test.zip\" value=\"Download\">Output File</a>
2. Any suggestions on how it can be achievable in javascript ?
