PowerProtect Data Manager 19.14 Network-Attached Storage User Guide

The PowerProtect Data Manager Administrator Guide provides more information about procedures that require the Administrator role. The PowerProtect Data Manager system administrator typically performs these procedures, some of which have server-wide effect.

Many of these procedures are not specific to protecting NAS assets. However, some procedures in the PowerProtect Data Manager Administrator Guide are prerequisites for, or also applicable to, NAS protection. For example:

• Adding and configuring protection storage, including storage units
• Adding and configuring virtual networks
• Configuring additional objectives for protection policies, such as exclusions, replication, and cloud tiering
• Managing protection policies, including adding or removing assets, and disabling a policy, configuring an SLA, and protection rules
• Managing backups, such as editing retention periods and deleting backup copies
• Managing any running jobs

Review these procedures when required for your environment or when called out by a task in this guide. If required, coordinate with your PowerProtect Data Manager system administrator or backup and restore administrators.
