Step 2. Specify NetApp Server Name or Address and Storage Role

At the Name step of the wizard, specify the storage system name, description and storage role.

  1. In the Management server DNS name or IP address field, specify a DNS name, or IPv4 or IPv6 address of the storage system. Note that you can use IPv6 addresses only if IPv6 communication is enabled as described in the IPv6 Support section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
  2. In the Description field, provide a description for future reference. The default description contains information about the user who added the storage system, date and time when the storage system was added.

Only NAS backup jobs are allowed to access this storage system, so the NAS filer check box is selected automatically in the Role section.
