Create Data Replication Plan

To replicate backup data to destination recovery point server in Arcserve Cloud Console, you must create a data replication plan. The replication plan includes a backup task and a replicate to Arcserve Cloud task. In the replication task, specify the account details and connect to the Arcserve Cloud. If the connection is successful, select the plan that the Cloud console administrator created for you.

Follow these steps:

1. Login to Arcserve UDP Console and click the Resources tab.
2. Navigate to Plans and click All Plans.
3. Click Add a Plan.
