Managing cloud storage

You can use cloud storage as primary backup storage for container workloads and the IBM Storage® Protect Plus catalog, or as secondary storage from the vSnap server.

The steps required to add cloud storage to IBM Storage Protect Plus are the same for primary and secondary storage.

Limitations:
  • For IBM Cloud® Object Storage, support for retention-enabled vaults is not available.
  • For S3 compatible storage, generic S3 support is based on external certification processes. For the list of supported S3 compatible providers, see technote 1087149.
