Remote accounts
Remote accounts are users set up to give secure access to the current Media
Operations Server from another Media Operations Server. Another Media Operations
Server can link to this server electronically using the current server as an offsite vendor.
An offsite vendor account (configured with the name of the current Media Operations
Server, account ID, and password) on another server must match a remote user
account on the current server. This ensures that any external transit requests (requests
to use the current server as offsite storage and retrieve previously stored media)
received by this server are secure.
When creating the remote account, define the site to be used to store the media from
another server. The vaults configured on the designated site are used to store the
remote account media.
Each remote account has its own media pools created automatically when media
are received. A media pool is created for each different media type. For example,
if the remote account name is KLAXON, the pool for LTO media will be KLAXON-LTO.
This allows you to audit media you are currently storing.
You can view media pools information from global or site level for the site associated
with that account, or from Media/Pools tabs on the Remote Accounts window.
Configuring backup processes and objects
Media Operations deals with media lifecycle components (media, media pools,
backup specifications, devices, and systems) either controlled and automatically
created by Backup Managers, or media existing outside the Backup Manager.
