Adding SMB File Share

Before you add an SMB file share to the inventory of the virtual infrastructure, consider the following:

• The file share meets requirements listed in the Platform Support section.

• If you plan to use a dedicated proxy server or cache repository, make sure these components are added in Backup Infrastructure.

To add an SMB file share as a source of unstructured data, do the following:

1. Launch the New File Share wizard.
2. Specify the path to the SMB file share and access credentials.
3. Specify advanced SMB file share settings.
4. Specify file share processing settings.
5. Apply file share settings.
6. Finish working with the wizard.
