Step 3. Specify Object Storage Settings
At the Container step of the wizard, specify the container and folder that will be used to store data:
- From the Container drop-down list, select a container.
Make sure that the container where you want to store your backup data was created in advance.
Note |
The default Root container is not supported. For more information about this container, see Microsoft Docs. |
- In the Folder field, enter a cloud folder name to which you want to map your object storage repository. Alternatively, click Browse and either select an existing folder or click New Folder.
- Select the Limit object storage consumption to check box to define a soft limit that can be exceeded temporarily for your object storage consumption. Provide the value in TB or PB.
- Select the Make recent backups immutable for check box to prohibit deletion of blocks of data from object storage. Specify the immutability period. For more information, see Immutability.
- If you plan to access your backup data in an infrequent manner, select the Use Cool Tier (may result in higher cost) check box. Veeam Backup & Replication will keep blocks of data in the Cool access tier. For more information on the Cool tier, see Microsoft Docs.
Important |
If you do not use this option, Veeam Backup & Replication will use the access tier that you have set up for the storage account. |
