New Protection Group Wizard

Published : April 8, 2005 | Updated : August 17, 2005

Welcome to the New Protection Group wizard!

This wizard guides you through the process of creating a protection group. Protection group creation involves making a series of decisions about how you want to configure the group. These decisions include:

  • Choosing a name for the group.

  • Selecting members for the group.

  • Allocating space on the storage pool for replicas, shadow copies, and transfer logs; and allocating space on the file servers for synchronization logs.

  • Choosing a method for replica creation.

  • Specifying a protection schedule.

Throughout the protection group creation process, the wizard provides default options, which you can override if you choose.

Review the Welcome page, and then click Next.

Note

If you do not want the wizard to display the Welcome page when you create protection groups in the future, select the Skip this page next time check box.

Click Help on any wizard page if you need assistance while working in the wizard.
