We recommend that you create a vault in each destination where you are going to store backup
archives. This will ease your work as follows.
Quick access to the vault
You will not have to remember paths to the folders where the archives are stored. When creating a
backup plan or a task that requires selection of an archive or an archive destination place, the list of
vaults will be available for quick access without drilling down through the folders tree.
Easy archive management
A vault is available for access from the
Navigation
pane. Having selected the vault, you can browse
the archives stored there and perform the following archive management operations:
get a list of backups included in each archive
recover data from a backup
examine backup content
validate all archives in the vault or individual archives or backups
mount a volume backup to copy files from the backup to a physical disk
safely delete archives and backups from the archives.
Creating vaults is highly recommended but is not obligatory. You may choose not to use the shortcuts
and always specify the full path to the archive vault. All of the above operations except for archive
and backup deletion can be performed without creating vaults.
The operation of creating a vault results in adding the vault name to the
Vaults
section of the
Navigation
pane.
Personal vaults
A vault is called personal if it was created using direct connection of the console to a managed
machine. Personal vaults are specific for each managed machine.

Personal vaults
A vault is called personal if it was created using direct connection of the console to a managed
machine. Personal vaults are specific for each managed machine. Personal vaults are visible to any
user that can log on to the system. A user's right to back up to a personal vault is defined by the
user's permission for the folder or device where the vault is located.
A personal vault can be organized on detachable or removable media.
Personal vaults can be used by local backup plans or local tasks.
