Editing Backup Appliance

You can edit settings of the backup appliance that were specified while adding the appliance to the backup infrastructure.

To edit backup appliance settings, do the following:

Open the Backup Infrastructure view.
In the inventory pane, select Backup Proxies.
In the working area, select the backup appliance and click Edit Proxy on the ribbon.

Alternatively, right-click the backup appliance and select Properties.

Complete the Edit oVirt KVM Backup Appliance wizard:

To provide a new description for the backup appliance and change the number of tasks that the embedded worker is able to handle in parallel, follow the instructions provided in section Connecting Existing Backup Appliance (step 3).
To change credentials that are used to access the backup appliance, follow the instructions provided in section Connecting Existing Backup Appliance (step 4).
To manage SSH access to the appliance, to enable or disable worker updates, to change the backup appliance network settings, or to configure an HTTP proxy for accessing Veeam update repositories, follow the instructions provided in section Deploying New Backup Appliance (step 5).

Note

The user name and password must be updated in the record of the Credential manager that is already selected at the Credentials step of the wizard. If you create a new record and select it, Veeam Backup for OLVM and RHV will not be able to update credentials and will show you an authorization error.

To save changes made to the appliance settings, click Finish.
