Shared Folder Settings

The Network Share step of the wizard is available if you have chosen to save the backup to a network shared folder.

Specify the shared folder settings:

1. In the Server field, type an IP address or domain name of the server that hosts the shared folder.
2. In the Folder field, type a name of the network shared folder in which you want to store backup files.
3. If the network shared folder requires authentication, specify credentials to access the network shared folder:

1. In the Username field, type a name of the account that has access permissions on the shared folder.
2. If necessary, in the Domain field, type a name of the domain in which the account that has access permissions on the shared folder is registered.
3. In the Password field, type a password of the account that has access permissions on the shared folder.

4. In the Retention policy section, specify the number of restore points for Veeam Agent to store in the target location. By default, Veeam Agent keeps 7 restore points. To learn more, see Backup Retention Policy.
