• Description - (Optional) Enter a brief description of the storage
server.
• Max Connections - Enter the maximum number of connections
allowed to the storage server (3 to 65536).
Note: Quantum recommends setting Max Connections to
300.
• Enable Concurrent Optimized Duplication - Select the check
box to enable optimized duplication during OST ingest.
Concurrent Optimized Duplication is disabled by default. If
enabled, as data is written to the storage server, it is
simultaneously replicated to the target DXi. When optimized
duplication or Automatic Image Replication subsequently
occurs, the operation is more efficient because a portion of the
required data has already been replicated to the target storage
server.
Note: To configure the target DXi, see Replication Wizard on
page 81.
Note: When Concurrent Optimized Duplication is enabled, all
data on the storage server is duplicated, not just the
specified images.
2 Select the check box for each optimized duplication target you want
to duplicate the storage server to. When the storage server is
duplicated, its data will be sent to all selected targets.
3 Click Add .
The storage server displays in the Storage Servers Added table.

Storage Servers Added
table and click Delete .
