Step 5. Specify Mount Server Settings
At the Mount Server step of the wizard, specify settings for the mount server that you plan to use for restore operations, and configure a helper appliance. The helper appliance is a temporary host that Veeam Backup & Replication deploys on your Wasabi Cloud object storage storage to perform a health check of backup files and apply retention to unstructured data backup files. For more information, see Health Check for Object Storage Repositories and Helper Appliance in Unstructured Data Backup. After Veeam Backup & Replication completes these operations, it removes the helper appliance from the Wasabi Cloud object storage storage.

Specifying Mount Server Settings
To specify the mount server settings, do the following:
- From the Mount Server drop-down list, select a server that you want to use as a mount server. Veeam Backup & Replication uses this server during restore operations to mount VM disks directly from objects located in object storage repositories. For more information, see Mount Server.
The Mount Server list contains only Microsoft Windows servers that are added to the backup infrastructure. If the server is not added to the backup infrastructure yet, click Add New on the right to open the New Windows Server wizard. For more information, see Adding Microsoft Windows Servers.
- In the Instant recovery write cache folder field, specify a folder to keep cache that is created during mount operations.
- To specify the helper appliance settings, click Configure. From the Managed server drop-down list, select a server that you want to use as the helper appliance.
