
[Machine name] - substitution for the machine's name

[Policy name] - substitution for the backup policy's name
As a result, in the Name field the following rule will appear: [Machine name]_[Policy
name]_Archive1
So, if the backup policy named, say SYSTEM_BACKUP will be applied to three machines (say,
FINDEPT1, FINDEPT2, FINDEPT3), the following three archives will be created in the location:
FINDEPT1_SYSTEM_BACKUP_Archive1
FINDEPT2_SYSTEM_BACKUP_Archive1
FINDEPT3_SYSTEM_BACKUP_Archive1
2. Click OK.
The name looks like ArchiveN, where N is a sequence number. If the program finds that the archive
Archive1 is already stored in the location, it will automatically suggest the name Archive2.

1. Select one of the following:
 Use the policy credentials
The program will access the location using the credentials of the backup policy specified in
the General section.

Use the following credentials
The program will access the location using the credentials you specify. Use this option if the
policy credentials do not have access permissions to the location. You might need to provide
special credentials for a network share or a storage node.
Specify:

User name. When entering the name of an Active Directory user account, be sure to also
specify the domain name (DOMAIN\Username or Username@domain)
 Password. The password for the account.

Warning: According to the original FTP specification, credentials required for access to FTP servers are

an eavesdropper using a packet sniffer.
