Allocating Microsoft 365 Repository Resources

In the Microsoft 365 Repositories window, you can allocate Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 repository resources to the company. A company to which Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 resources are allocated will be able to store backups with Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365.

To allocate Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 repository resources to the company:

Click Add.

If you want to limit the number of users for object storage or Jet database repositories, set the User quota toggle to On and specify the maximum number of users that the company is allowed to store on the repository in the Users field.
