Creating Plans to Protect Data › How to Replicate Data Between Data Stores Managed from a UDP Console › Create a Backup Plan with a Backup Task › Specify the Destination

Specify the Destination

The destination is a location where you store the backup data. You must at least specify the destination to save the plan.

Follow these steps:

1. Select one of the following Destination Type:

   Local disk or shared folder

   Specifies that the backup destination is either a local destination or a shared folder. If you select this option, you can save data as either recovery points or recovery sets. The recovery points and recovery sets options are available on the Schedule tab.

   Arcserve UDP Recovery Point Server

   Specifies that the backup destination is a recovery point server. If you select this option, then data is stored as recovery points. You cannot store data as recovery sets.

2. If you have selected Arcserve UDP Recovery Point Server, then provide the following details:
   1. Select a recovery point server.
   2. Select a data store. The list displays all data stores that are created at the specified recovery point server.
   3. Provide a session password.
   4. Confirm the session password.
3. If you have selected Local disk or shared folder, then provide the following details:
   1. Provide the full path of the local or network destination. For the network destination, specify the credentials with the write access.
   2. Select the encryption algorithm. For more information, see Encryption Settings.
   3. Optionally, provide an encryption password.
   4. Confirm the encryption password.
   5. Select a type of compression. For more information, see Compression Type.

   Note: If you store the data to a local disk or shared folder, you cannot replicate the data to another recovery point server. Replication is supported only if you store the data to a recovery point server.

The destination is specified.
