Adding a site

Edit online

Add sites to define a grouping of providers based on their location in your IBM® Storage Defender Copy Data Management environment. Once sites are created in IBM Storage Defender Copy Data Management, they can be applied to your providers.

Before you begin

  • Click View Relationship to view the resources that are assigned to the site.
  • Review the properties and location of your current providers. See Sites and providers overview for a list of supported providers.

Procedure

To add a site, complete the following steps:
  1. Click the Configure tab. On the Views pane, select Sites & Providers, then select the Sites tab. The Sites pane opens.
  2. In the Sites pane, click New. The Create Site dialog opens.
  3. Enter a site name and a meaningful description.
  4. To set this site as the default site, select Set as default. New storage providers are automatically assigned to the default site unless another site is selected.
  5. Click OK. The site appears on the Sites pane and can be applied to new and existing storage providers.
