Bandwidth to repositories
Repository size
• Default configuration: A standard volume, with an MBR partition on a basic disk, has a limit of 2 TB. This configuration is the default for Windows Server® 2003. In this configuration, the vRanger repository cannot exceed 2 TB.
• Dynamic disks: Dynamic disks contain dynamic volumes, including simple volumes, spanned volumes, striped volumes, mirrored volumes, and RAID-5 volumes. A repository on dynamic disk volumes can be as large as 64 TB.
• GPT volumes: GUID partition table (GPT) volumes provide a more flexible mechanism for partitioning disks than the older Master Boot Record (MBR) partitioning scheme that has been common to PCs. GPT partitions are supported on Windows Server 2003, SP1 and later, and can reach up to 256 TB. For more information, see http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device/storage/GPT_FAQ.mspx
Configuring vCenter permissions
vRanger requires a VMware® vCenter™ account to function properly. To comply with security best practices, Quest recommends creating a vCenter user account with the minimum required permissions for vRanger to use.
The procedures differ slightly depending on which version of vCenter you are using. For VMware vSphere® 5 or later, see the following topic.
Using vSphere 5.5 or later
Starting with VMware vSphere® 5.5, the permissions required for backup and restore operations in a vSphere environment differ slightly from the permissions required for previous versions of VMware® vCenter™. If you have migrated to vSphere 5 or later after creating a vRanger user account, update the permissions accordingly to avoid job interruption.
To create a vRanger user on vSphere 5 or later:
1 Navigate to Administration > Roles.
2 Select Add Role.
3 Enter a name for the role, such as vRanger Non-Admin.
4 In the Privileges section, set the permissions according to the following table:
