Service Host

The URL of the host providing the cloud storage service. (Commvault transfers data using HTTPS protocol to the service host.)

• Do not add the bucket name as the service host.

• Multiple hosts can be added in the Service Host field using commas to separate them. For example servicehost1, servicehost2, servicehost3. (For local cloud servers with multiple IP addresses, the list of IP addresses can be added. For example, 192.xxx.0.100,192.xxx.0.101, 192.xxx.0.102.)

  Note

  All the hosts (or IP addresses) in the list must point to the same storage. Adding a host or IP address to a different storage will result in data loss.

Credential

Select a pre-defined credential from the list.

To define a new credential, click the Add New button from the list. The following information is required.

• Credential Name: An user-defined name for the credential.

• User Name: User name for the account.

• Password: Password for the specified account.

Credentials must not contain blank spaces or other special characters. For instructions about creating a credential, see Adding a Credential to Credential Vault.

Bucket

Click the Detect button to detect an existing bucket.

Sometimes, existing bucket list may not get populated while detecting the buckets, as some vendors may not support this operation, or if there are no permissions to complete the operation. In such cases, type the name of the existing bucket that you want to use. The system will automatically use the existing bucket if it is available.
