Adding Helper Appliance Template

To add a helper appliance template, do the following:

1. Open the Backup Infrastructure view.
2. In the navigation pane, select Microsoft Azure.
3. In the working area, click Helper Appliance Templates.

4. In the Helper Appliance Templates wizard, click Add.

5. In the Template Settings window, specify settings for the appliance deployment. Click OK.

In the Subscription and Location fields, specify the subscription and region to which you plan to instantly recover workloads. In the Resource group, Storage account, Virtual Network and Subnet fields, you can specify an existing resource or create a new one. If you choose to create new resources, they will be deleted after the template is deployed. Only the resource group is left to store the template (managed image).

6. At the Appliance Template step of the wizard, click Next. Then click Finish. The template will be deployed as a background process.
