Step 4. Allocate Backup Resources

The Backup Resources step of the wizard is available if you have selected the Backup resources option at the Tenant step of the wizard. You can use this step to specify cloud repository quota settings for the created tenant account. You can assign to the tenant a single quota on one cloud repository or several quotas on different cloud repositories.

To assign a cloud repository quota:

1. Click Add on the right of the Cloud repositories list.
2. In the Cloud repository name field of the Set Quota window, enter a friendly name for the cloud repository you want to present to the tenant. The name you enter will be displayed in the list of backup repositories at tenant’s side.
3. From the Backup repository list, select a backup repository in your backup infrastructure whose space resources must be allocated to the tenant.
4. In the User quota field, specify the amount of space you want to allocate to the tenant on the selected backup repository.
5. [For tenants who plan to work via WAN accelerators] Select the Enable WAN acceleration through the following WAN accelerator check box and choose a target WAN accelerator configured at the SP side. The source WAN accelerator is configured at tenant’s side. The tenant will select the source WAN accelerator at his/her side when configuring a backup copy job.
6. Click OK.
7. Repeat steps 1-6 for all backup repositories in your backup infrastructure whose resources you want to allocate to the tenant.
8. If you want to protect tenant backups against unwanted deletion, select the Keep deleted backup files for <N> days check box and specify the number of days to keep a backup in the recycle bin after a backup is deleted by the tenant. To learn more, see Insider Protection.
