HP BB118BV - StorageWorks Data Protector Express Package Tutorial page 9

Disk backup and restore
When the location is selected, set Specify size (in GB) for storage to 18 (or appropriate value for
your backup jobs). This is the maximum and licensed capacity of the storage folder. There is a
maximum capacity of 36 GB for HP Data Protector Express Software Single Server Edition and a
maximum capacity of 8 TB for HP Data Protector Express Software. Set Minimum free disk space
to 2048 (or a value that ensures you will have sufficient space for the backup).
7. This creates a new folder using the chosen location on disk. The Virtual Library is then configured
with virtual media drives and virtual storage slots. When using a media rotation scheme for backup, it
is sensible to have sufficient virtual storage slots to cover the number of media in the rotation cycle.
We are creating a single one-time backup job, so we only need one slot. Change the Virtual storage
slots to 1 and keep the default of 1 Virtual media drive.
8. Click Next to go to the second and final Virtual Library Configuration screen. We will not change
any of the values on this screen. There are two tabs on this screen: Policy and
Encryption/Compression, which are only active if the D2D2Any option license is installed or the HP
Data Protector Express Software is running in evaluation mode. The D2DAny option requires that HP
Data Protector Express Software is installed, it is not an option with HP Data Protector Express
Software Single Server Edition. See the HP Data Protector Express Software User's Guide and
Technical Reference for further details.
