▪ Repository Name: Enter a descriptive name for the repository.
▪ Description: [Optional] Enter a long-form description for the repository.
▪ DNS Name or IP: Enter the IP or FQDN for the repository.
▪ Export Directory: Specify the export directory, which is similar in concept to a network share. You must create a target subdirectory in the export directory.
▪ Target Directory: Enter a subdirectory of the NFS export directory. This directory is the location to which savepoints are written.
IMPORTANT: Do not select Encrypt all backups to this repository. Using encryption or compression with deduplicated repositories limits or disables deduplication. Encryption and compression should not be used with any repository type that provides deduplication.
3 Click OK.The connection to the repository is tested and the repository is added to the My Repositories pane and the Repository Information dialog box.
▪ Import as Read-Only: To import all savepoint data into the vRanger database, but only for restores, click this button. You cannot back up data to this repository.
▪ Import: To import all savepoint data into the vRanger database, click this button. vRanger is able to use the repository for backups and restores. vRanger requires read and write access to the directory.
▪ Overwrite: To retain the savepoint data on the disk and not import it into vRanger, click this button. vRanger ignores the existence of the existing savepoint data and treats the repository as new.
NOTE: For instructions on additional configurations and scheduling backup jobs, see the Quest vRanger User’s Guide.
