About cloud storage servers

A storage server is an entity that writes data to and reads data from the storage. In case of cloud storage server, it is a host or an end point that cloud vendor exposes to perform backup operations using NetBackup media server(s). You can use any logical name to identify the cloud storage when you configure cloud storage server in NetBackup.

When you configure a cloud storage server, it inherits the NetBackup Scalable Storage properties.

See Scalable Storage properties.

After you configure the storage server, you can change the properties of the storage server.

See Changing cloud storage server properties.

NetBackup media servers back up the clients and send the data to the storage server.

See About the NetBackup media servers for cloud storage.
