Specify the Source

The Source page lets you specify the SharePoint Online source nodes that you want to protect. You can select more than one SharePoint Online source nodes in a plan.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Source tab.



2. Add backup proxy using one of the following options:
   1. Select the Backup Proxy from the drop-down list.

      All the SharePoint Online backups and restores are executed from the backup proxy. The RPS servers are listed and added, by default.

   2. Click the Add button placed in front of Backup Proxy to add a new Backup Proxy to the list.
3. Add SharePoint Online node using one of the following options:
4. Note: You can save a plan without adding any source nodes. But, the plan is not deployed unless you add a node.
• Click Add and then click Select Source to Protect in Arcserve UDP.
• Note: Select this option only when you have already added SharePoint node before.
• The Add Nodes to Plan dialog is displayed.
1. Select a node.
2. Click Connect.
3. Note: To find the SharePoint Online nodes that you want to protect, use Search.

• Note: Unlike other nodes, you cannot add the SharePoint Online node from the All Nodes page. You can add a SharePoint Online node only in a plan while creating or modifying a plan.

Using this node name, the UDP Console identifies the SharePoint Online backup source.

2. Specify the Site collection URL or the site that you want to protect.

This account is either a member of Site Collection Administrators or Owner of the site.

Note: You can use a single account to protect multiple SharePoint Online resources in the different plans also.

4. Click Connect.

The Add Notes to a Plan dialog is displayed.

5. Select the SharePoint list/Library, documents or other list items that you want to protect.

Note: Arcserve UDP v6.5 protects only SharePoint Online lists, Libraries, and Documents.

6. Click Save.

The SharePoint Online sources that you want to protect are added to the plan.
