Adding backup storage

These procedures apply to Unitrends’ virtual systems only. You can add storage by expanding the backup device across added disks, or by creating a separate storage area for a new backup device.

Warning: It is strongly recommended that all UEB storage is either direct attached storage (DAS, internal to the hypervisor) or resides on one external storage array. If you configure storage across multiple storage arrays and one becomes unavailable, all backup data is corrupted, resulting in total data loss.
