Create Air Gap Protect storage to isolate your backup data in a secure, time-based container that prevents unauthorized access and deletion.
About storage containers
When you create Air Gap Protect storage, the new storage has a single container, shown on the Backup locations tab for the storage.
When an Air Gap Protect container reaches 500 TB, it is marked as Full and Commvault automatically creates a new container for the storage. You can also manually create containers.

The storage, MediaAgent, and DDB MediaAgent must be in the same location (region).

-
From the Command Center navigation pane, go to Storage > Air Gap Protect.
