A Rapid Recovery Core provides the essential services for backup, replication, archiving, and management. A protected machine is a machine on which the Rapid Recovery Agent software is installed that is managed and protected by a specific Core. Repositories are set up through the Core to store the snapshots that are captured from the protected machines. Repositories are configured by specifying a storage location associated with the Core server to store the data.

A repository is used to store the snapshots that are captured from the protected servers. Before creating a repository, verify that you have set the credentials for logging on to the associated Rapid Recovery Core.

* 
NOTE: Rapid Recovery repositories should be stored on primary storage devices. Archival storage devices such as Data Domain are not supported due to performance limitations. Similarly, repositories should not be stored on NAS filers that tier to the cloud as these devices tend to have performance limitations when used as primary storage.

For more information about repositories, see the topic “Understanding Repositories” in the Rapid Recovery User Guide.
