Step 4. Specify Object Storage Settings

At the Bucket step of the wizard, specify Amazon S3 bucket and folder that will be used to store data:

1. From the Data center region drop-down list, select a region.
2. In the Bucket field, enter a name of the bucket or click Browse to get the necessary bucket.

If the FIPS-compliant operation mode is enabled and the bucket you want to add is non-FIPS compliant, the warning will be displayed. For more information, see FIPS Compliance.

3. 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.

3. 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.
4. 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.

Note that the maximum immutability period you can set in the Veeam Backup & Replication UI is 90 days. If you want to set immutability to a longer period, use the Set-VBRAmazonS3Repository cmdlet.

5. If you plan to access your backup data in an infrequent manner, select the Use infrequent access storage class check box to mark each block as Standard IA (Standard Infrequent Access).
6. To enable Amazon S3 One Zone-Infrequent Access, select the Store backups in a single availability zone only check box. For more information, see AWS Documentation.
