Create a Data Domain Cloud Tier device in NetWorker

NetWorker can protect data by generating a copy of data and sending it to a remote destination. The remote copy (archive copy) is kept off-premises using Cloud storage. For quick recovery, you can save the first backup copy on-premises. In this section, you will learn how to create a device located on Lyve Cloud for an archive clone repository.

To create a data domain cloud tier device:

1. Open Network Administrator. Click Devices and select New Device Wizard.
2. Select DD Cloud Tier as the Device Type. Select Next.

3. Enter Data Domain DD BOOST Username and Password. Select Next.

4. Choose an existing folder or create a new folder.

5. Choose an existing pool or create a new pool.

6. Choose a storage node.

7. Configure the Data Domain management user and choose a cloud unit. In the CA Certificate section, select Pull CA Certificate to get a Data Domain certificate.

8. Select Configure and Finish to create a clone pool.
