Adding a repository

The following instructions describe how to add a CIFS repository to vRanger. For information about adding other types of repositories, see Supplemental instructions: additional repository types.

To add a repository:
1
In the My Repositories pane, right-click anywhere, and click Add > Windows Share (CIFS).
 
* 
NOTE: These instructions describe the process for adding a CIFS repository. The procedures for the other repository types are described in Supplemental instructions: additional repository types.
2
In the Add Windows Network Share Repository dialog box, complete the following fields:
•
Repository Name: Enter a name for the repository.
•
Description: [Optional] Enter a long-form description for the repository.
•
User Name and Password: Enter the credentials for accessing the CIFS share.
•
Security Protocol: Select a protocol, NTLM (default) or NTLMv2.
* 
IMPORTANT: When adding a CIFS repository, the Security Protocol setting applies only to Virtual Appliance based operations.

For machine-based operations, the security protocol used is determined by the Windows configuration on the vRanger machine. By default, this is NTLM.

To use NTLMv2, you must edit the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\LmCompatibilityLevel to set the LmCompatibilityLevel to 5.

•
Server: Enter the path to the preferred directory. Alternatively, you may enter the server IP or DNS name and click Browse, and browse to the correct path.
 
* 
CAUTION: Paths for CIFS repositories are case-sensitive. When entering the path for a CIFS directory, ensure that the path is entered in the correct case.
3
If you want these backups password-protected, select Encrypt all backups to this repository, enter a Password for the encrypted repository, and then confirm the password by re-entering it.
 
* 
CAUTION: If you use the Encrypt all backups to this repository feature, make certain to retain the password you enter. There is no back-door or administrator-level password. If the password is unknown, the backups are not usable.
4
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.

Managing repository replication

If you are using Quest RDA or EMC® Data Domain® Boost (DD Boost™) repositories, you can also set up repository replication with another repository of the same type. For information on adding these types of repositories, see Adding an EMC Data Domain Boost (DD Boost) repository and Adding a Quest Rapid Data Access (RDA) repository.

After the first repository is added to vRanger and another is available for replication, you can synchronize replication in one of three ways:

•
Automatically, after a successful backup task to that repository.
•
As a separate job on a scheduled basis.
•
Manually, using the Synchronize option.

Configuring a repository for automatic replication

When a managed repository is configured for savepoint replication, and a backup task completes successfully, each savepoint is also replicated to the replication repository.

To enable automatic savepoint replication:
1
On the Main toolbar, click Tools > Options.
2
Under the Repositories node, select Replication.
 
* 
TIP: You may also right-click the target repository in the My Repositories pane, and select Repository Replication Options.
3
Select Enable savepoint replication for a successful backup job task, and click Ok.

Scheduling repository synchronization

When using scheduled repository synchronization, savepoints are replicated to the replication repository according to a configured schedule.

To schedule a repository synchronization:
1
On the Main toolbar, click Tools > Options.
2
Under the Repositories node, select Replication.
3
In the Repository Replication Configuration pane, find the Repository Name column, and select the applicable repository.
The repositories listed are the target repositories.
4
Select Schedule repository synchronization.
5
Configure the replication schedule as desired, using the following information as a guide.
a
Start: In the drop-down list, select the time for the replication task to begin.
b
Recurrence Pattern: Establish how often the changes should be synchronized. There are five options within this section:
•
Daily: The daily option can be scheduled to synchronize the repository every weekday or every x number of days.
•
Weekly: Repository synchronization can be configured to run on weekly intervals, from every week to every 99 weeks. The day of the week on which to run synchronization tasks can be configured.
•
Monthly: The monthly option offers the following configurations:
•
Day [x] of every [y] month:
x can be any value from 1 to 31. This value determines the day of the month on which the synchronization job occurs.
y can be any value from 1 to 99. This value determines the monthly interval — for example, every two months sets the job to run every other month.
•
The [f] [d] of every [y] month(s):
f can be either: first, second, third, fourth or last.
d can be: weekday, weekend day, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.
y can be any value from 1 to 99. This value determines the monthly interval — for example, every two months sets the synchronization task to run every other month.
•
Yearly: The yearly option offers the following configurations:
•
Every [m] [x]:
m is any month of the year. This value determines the month of the year in which the synchronization occurs.
x can be any value from 1 to 31. This value determines the day of the month on which the synchronization occurs.
•
The [f] [d] of [m]:
f can be either: first, second, third, fourth, or last.
d can be: day, weekday, weekend day, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.
m is any month of the year. This value determines the month of the year in which the synchronization occurs.
•
Interval: The interval option lets you select the number of days, hours, and minutes that should pass between backup jobs. The interval selected must be greater than or equal to five minutes.
6
Click OK to schedule the job.
To synchronize a repository manually:
1
In the My Repositories pane, right-click the source or replication repository, and select Synchronize.
2
When the confirmation prompt appears, click Yes.
