Creating a Vault

The following are the requirements for creating a vault:

  • At least one robot must be configured already in Vault.

  • A robot may contain multiple vaults, but a vault cannot span robots. Therefore, if you configured three TLD robots for Vault (not connected with pass-through devices), you must define at least three logical vaults, one for each TLD robot.

  • Volumes in a vault must have the same density. If a robot has volumes of different density and you want to use all of those volumes for Vault, that robot must have a separate vault for each volume density.

Use the following procedure to create a vault.

To create a vault

  1. In the NetBackup Web UI, select Storage > Vault management. Expand Vault management.
  2. Select a robot in the Vault management tree.
  3. From the Actions drop-down, select Add vault.
  4. In the Add vault dialog box, enter or select the values for each fields.

    See About configuring Vault dialog box attributes.

  5. Click Add.
