Cloud Storage is enabled for each Computer Collection separately or can be enabled when editing the Cloud Storage. See Editing Cloud Storage. When a backup is run for a Computer Collection with Cloud Storage enabled, a copy of the backup is saved to the Cloud Storage location.
Depending on what primary storages are set, backup can be sent from the local storage (console server), directly from domain controller or remote storage location. If only local storage is selected, then backup will be written to the console and then sent to Cloud Storage from the console side. If remote storage is selected, the backup will be sent from remote storage despite the local storage setting.
Prerequisites
You must have completed the following steps before you can copy backups to your Cloud Storage server.
Adding Microsoft Azure Cloud Storage and or Adding Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud Storage must be enabled.
Computer Collections must be created.
The backup type, either Standard (Active Directory®) or Full (Bare Metal Recovery), must be set for the Computer Collection.
NOTE |
Both Active Directory® and Bare Metal Recovery backups can be copied to a Cloud Storage location. |
To enable a Cloud Storage for a Computer Collection
In the Recovery Manager for Active Directory console, expand the Computer Collections node.
Right-click the Computer Collection and select Properties then select the Secondary Storage tab.
Enable Cloud Storage and select Cloud Storage locations: Select the Enable Cloud Storage and select the Cloud Storage locations: checkboxes as you see fit. After the backup is saved to the Primary Storage location(s), a copy will be sent to the configured Cloud Storage locations. You can also select computer collections in the Cloud Storage Properties, under the Storage\Cloud Storage node.
An account to read data from remote storage location: Select an account that has read permission to the Remote Storage location. This account will be used to read the backup from remote storage and copy (upload) to Cloud Storage. If the account is incorrect and does not have the proper permissions, the copy of the backup to Cloud Storage will fail.
IMPORTANT |
The Select Account button is only used if you are sending backups from Remote Storage to Cloud Storage. For example, you are storing Bare Metal backups in the cloud. Otherwise it is grayed out. |
