HP X1800sb G2 Network Storage Blade - Manual (Page 17)

Entering an application name
Use the Enter an Application Name page to enter a name for the application. This name will be
used anywhere the application is referenced in ASM, so it must be a unique name.
1. Enter a name for the application.
2. When you are done, click Next to open the Storage Allocation page (see “Allocating space
for components” (page 17) ).
Using the Create a Virtual Library Wizard
This wizard helps you create a virtual library for disk-to-disk backup of other client or servers to
your HP Storage System and manage the storage for the virtual library through ASM. Install Data
Protector Express on additional servers you need to backup. See
“Installing Data Protector Express
on other machines” (page 32) for more information.
Accessing the Virtual Library Wizard
To access the Create a Virtual Library Wizard
1. In the Actions pane, select Create a Virtual Library.
The Create a Virtual Library welcome page opens.
2. Click Next to open the Configure virtual library page (see “Configure your virtual library”
(page 17) ).
Configure your virtual library
To configure your virtual library, do the following:
1. In the name dialog box, type a name for your virtual library.
2. In the Number of slots field, type or use the arrows to indicate how many slots are needed
for your virtual library.
3. When you are done, click Next to open the Storage Allocation page (see “Allocating space
for components” (page 17) ).
NOTE: The number of slots needed for your virtual library will depend on the media rotation
type chosen for the backups that will use the virtual library. The number of slots must be high
enough to support the rotation type you intend to use for scheduling backups to this virtual
library. See Planning for Media Rotation in the Data Protector Express User's Guide and
Technical Reference for more information.
Allocating space for components
Use the Storage Allocation page in the wizards to specify the allocated space size and advanced
configuration settings for each application component or shared folder listed. Default values are
provided.
