-
Check where node should be installed for your environment:

Install using one of the following options:
-
All-in-one quick installation (recommended) Regardless of the installation option you choose:

The node requires staging space - assume a number of concurrent export and store tasks and multiply it by the biggest VM size (for example: 6 export tasks + 4 store tasks * 100 GB should require around 1 TB)
-
The Staging space configuration will guide you to prepare storage on the spare drive
-
DPX vPlus is installed in the
/opt/vprotectfolder and staging space is assumed to be in/vprotect_data- these are the defaults and should not be changed.

- configure backup destination - we recommend to use Synthetic File System
- configure backup SLA (policies and schedules)
- configure backup of your internal DB (for DR purposes)
-
Once you have configured source, backup destination and backup SLA - initiate backup and restore operations:
