Creating a Vault

The following are the requirements for creating a vault:

At least one robot must be configured already in Vault.
A robot may contain multiple vaults, but a vault cannot span robots. Therefore, if you configured three TLD robots for Vault (not connected with pass-through devices), you must define at least three logical vaults, one for each TLD robot.
Volumes in a vault must have the same density. If a robot has volumes of different density and you want to use all of those volumes for Vault, that robot must have a separate vault for each volume density.

Use the following procedure to create a vault.

To create a vault

In the NetBackup Administration Console, expand Vault Management.
Select a robot in the Vault Management tree.
From the Actions menu, choose New > New Vault.
In the Configuring Vault dialog box attributes, on the Vault Attributes tab, enter or select values for each field.
See About configuring Vault dialog box attributes.
On the Retention Mappings tab, enter or select values for each field.
Click OK.
