The first time protection is added for a machine, a base image (that is, a snapshot of all the data in the
protected volumes) will transfer to the repository on the Rapid Recovery Core following the schedule
you defined, unless you specified to initially pause protection.

2. Select an existing repository from the list.
3. Click Next.
The Encryption page appears. Skip to

If you want to create a repository, select Create a Repository, and then complete the following steps.
1. On the Repository, enter the information described in the following table.
Table 86. Add New Repository settings
Text Box
Description
Repository Name
Enter the display name of the repository.
By default, this text box consists of the word
Repository and a number, which corresponds to the
number of repositories for this Core. For example,
if this is the first repository, the default name is
Repository 1. Change the name as needed.
Repository names must contain between 1 and 40
alphanumeric characters, including spaces. Do not
use
Concurrent Operations
Define the number of concurrent requests you want
the repository to support. By default the value is 64.
Comments
Optionally, enter a descriptive note about this
repository. You can enter up to 254 characters. For
example, type DVM Repository 2.
2. Click Add Storage Location to define the specific storage location or volume for the repository. This
volume should be a primary storage location.
CAUTION:
Define a dedicated folder within the root for the storage location for your
repository. Do not specify the root location. For example, use
E:\Repository\
,
not
E:\
. If the repository that you are creating in this step is later removed, all files at
the storage location of your repository are deleted. If you define your storage location
at the root, all other files in the volume (e.g.,
E:\
) are deleted, which could result in
catastrophic data loss.
The Add Storage Location dialog box appears.
