Configuring Backup and Index Phase to Use the Same MediaAgent

Note

This only applies for agents using the previous version of indexing. If the agent currently uses Indexing V2, then you do not have to perform the following configuration. For more information about indexing, see Indexing Version 2.

To ensure that the backup and index phases use the same MediaAgent, you must perform the following procedure to configure a setting in the Control Panel.

  2. On the Home ribbon, click Control Panel.

  3. Under Storage, click Media Management.

  4. Click the Resource Manager Configuration tab.

  5. Next to Force to use the same MediaAgent for create index and backup phase during NAS backup, click in the Value column, and then type 1.
