Managing backup storage location details

You can view location details, update credentials (like access key and secret key for AWS, or account name and account key for Azure), access the YAML configuration, and remove the location record.

View location details

From the ellipsis overflow menu of the location record, click Details to open the <Location name> slide out pane.

Expand the Policies and Applications to see a list of associated polices and applications. The number that is mentioned within parenthesis for Policies and Applications indicate the total number of associated polices and applications respectively.
Click the edit icon to update Access key and Secret key. For Azure, the values are Account name and Account key.
Click the launch YAML icon to view the YAML.

The details about the location vary based on the type. For example, Amazon AWS includes the following details: Type, Status, Used capacity, Endpoint, Bucket, Region, and associated Polices and Applications. The Region is only applicable for AWS locations.

Add location

Click Add Location to add a new location. For more information about the procedure, see Adding a backup storage location.

Edit location details

From the ellipsis overflow menu, click Edit to update the values of Access key and Secret key. For Azure, the values are Account name and Account key.

Note: You cannot update bucket details except credentials because two backup storage locations with different names can share the same credentials and endpoint.

Remove a location

From the ellipsis overflow menu of a location record, click Remove to delete the location record. Click Remove in the Confirm remove window. This action removes the location as an available backup location from IBM Fusion. However, you can still access this backup location through your storage service provider.
