This procedure applies to Unitrends’ virtual and physical systems, and to Cloud storage. You can archive to a SAN iSCSI LUN, a NAS share, virtual disk (for UEB systems only), and Cloud storage.
Note the following archive storage limitations:
• For archive to NAS, each backup system must archive to a separate NAS share. Having more than one backup system archiving to a given NAS share is likely to cause data corruption.
• For archive to iSCSI LUN, each backup system must archive to a separate LUN. Having more than one backup system archiving to a given iSCSI LUN is likely to cause data corruption.
1 Select Settings > Storage and Retention > Storage.
2 Click Add Archive Storage.
3 Enter a name for the storage being configured in the Storage Name field.
Note: Storage connected using the NFS, CIFS, or iSCSI protocols must not contain spaces in the name.
4 Select the storage Type and continue to the applicable procedure:
• For iSCSI, see To configure iSCSI storage
Note: For archive to iSCSI LUN, it is recommended to not resize the LUN after it has been added to the backup appliance as the new size cannot be detected by the backup appliance.
• For Fibre Channel, see To configure Fibre Channel storage
• For NAS, see To configure CIFS and NFS NAS storage
• For Cloud storage, see Adding cloud archive storage to the Unitrends appliance
• For Added Disk, see To configure added internal storage
