Adding Wasabi as a repository

Prerequisites

• To ensure backups in Wasabi cannot be changed, you need to create a new repository and enable the immutability feature during the creation process. Immutability cannot be applied to an already existing repository.
• You will also need the Access Key and Secret Access Key of your Wasabi account. To learn how to find the Access keys, click here.

Adding Wasabi storage as a repository

1. Navigate to the Admin tab > Administration > Backup Repository > Cloud.
2. Click the Add Repository button in the top-right corner.
3. Select Wasabi from the Repository Type drop-down.
4. Enter a name in the Repository Name field.
5. Enter the Access Key and Secret Access Key.
6. Enter the Bucket Name.

   Note: Metadata of the Microsoft 365, on-premises Exchange, Google Workspace, and Zoho WorkDrive backups will be stored in the default Elasticsearch node.

7. Click Save.

Once you’ve created the cloud storage repository, you can view the following information:

• Name of the repository
• Name of the account
• Type of the repository
• Status of the connected repository

You can also perform the following operations:

• Refresh repository details
• Update existing repository
• Delete existing repository

Refresh repository details

To fetch the status of the connected repository:

• Click the Refresh icon located in the Actions column of the repository.

Update existing repository

• Click the Edit icon under the Actions column of the repository to change the name of the repository.
• Modify the name of the repository and click Save.

Delete existing repository

Note: Deleting a configured repository will permanently delete all backup files in the repository, and you will not be able to perform any restorations.
