Based on a medium-sized environment that does not need standby virtual machines, you can use all of 
the storage to back up a significant number of agents. However, if you need more resources for standby 
virtual machines and back up a smaller number of agent machines, you can allocate more resources for 
larger VMs.

When you select the 

Appliance

 tab, the AppAssure Appliance software locates the available storage space 

for all supported controllers in the system and validates that the hardware meets the requirements.

To complete disk provisioning for all available storage:

1.

In the 

Appliance

 tab, click 

Tasks

 → 

Provisioning

.

The 

Provisioning

 screen displays estimated capacity for provisioning. This capacity is used to create 

a new AppAssure Repository.

CAUTION: Before proceeding ensure Step 2 through Step 4 is followed in this procedure.

2.

Open the 

Provisioning Storage

 window by clicking 

Provision

 in the Action column next to the 

storage that you want to provision.

3.

In the 

Optional Storage Reserve

 section, select the box next to 

Allocate a portion of the storage 

being provisioned for Standby Virtual Machines or other purposes

 and indicate a percentage of 

storage to allocate. Otherwise, the percentage of storage indicated in the 

Optional Storage Reserve 

section will be taken from all of the attached disks.

4.

Click 

Provision

.

Provisioning selected storage

To provision selected storage:

1.

In the 

Appliance

 tab, click 

Tasks

 → 

Provisioning

.

The 

Provisioning

 screen displays estimated capacity for provisioning. This capacity is used to create 

a new AppAssure Repository.

2.

To provision only a portion of the available space, click 

Provision

 under 

Action

 next to the storage 

space that you want to provision.
• To create new repository, select 

Create a new repository

, and provide a name for the repository.

By default, Repository 1 appears as the repository name. You can opt to overwrite the name.

• To add capacity to an existing repository, select 

Expand the existing repository

, and then select 

the repository from the 

Existing Repositories

 list.

NOTE: To add capacity, it is recommended that you expand an existing repository instead of 
adding a repository. Separate repositories do not utilize capacity as efficiently because 
deduplication cannot occur across separate repositories.

3.

Under 

Optional Storage Reserve

, select 

Allocate a portion of the storage being provisioned for 

Standby Virtual Machines or other purposes

, and then specify the percentage of storage to allocate 

for the VMs.
