In Backup storage, specify the path to the shared folder allocated for storing organization's
backups. If authentication is required to access the folder, specify the credentials of a user
account that has read/write permissions for this folder.

organization administrator will be able to see, delete, and even perform recovery from other
organization's backups.

be available in the organization. By default, all of the system backup plans will be available.
