Registering with Avamar for Backup and Restore
Avamar is backup and recovery server software that uses deduplication to eliminate redundant copies of
data, reducing the required storage space. For example, your px4-400d Network Storage might have 100
email messages with the same 1 MB attachment. If all those emails are backed up, that same attachment
is backed up 100 times, requiring 100 MB of storage space. With Avamar and data deduplication, only one
copy of the attachment is actually stored, so 100 MB of storage is effectively reduced to 1 MB.
When you enable Avamar on your px4-400d, you are registering with an Avamar server. You
cannot back up and restore from your px4-400d. Backup and restore operations are executed from
the Avamar server.
Registering Your px4-400d with the Avamar Server
1. On the Avamar page, click the switch on.
The Avamar Settings pop-up window opens.
2. In the Avamar Settings pop-up window, enter the following information and click Apply to save
your settings:
●
Server Address — the Avamar server IP address or hostname.
●
Client Domain — the registered domain name from the Avamar server.
