Step 2. Specify Object Storage Repository
In the Name field to enter a name and description for the object storage repository.
Provide a explanation of the backup intent in the Description filed.
Step 3. Specify Object Storage Account
Previous to the account setup using the Veeam wizard, be sure to have the connection settings details provided by Moyta:
  • Service point URL (Do not include the HTTPs)
  • Secret and Access Keys (Credentials)
  • Bucket Name
In the Service point field, specify an endpoint URL address and port.
  • Note* If you receive and error when adding the Service point and a port number, remove the https:// portion.
In the Region field, specify a region, this is generally us-east-1.
From the Credentials drop-down list, select user credentials to access your S3 compatible object storage with data archive.

Step 4. Specify Object Storage Settings

At the Bucket step of the wizard, specify the bucket and folder where you will store data..
In the Bucket configuration section, locate the option labeled "Automatic Bucket Creation Enabled" and disable it.  
  1. From the Bucket drop-down list, select a bucket name provided by Myota.
  2. In the Folder field, create or select a cloud folder name to which you want to map your object storage.  Alternatively, click Browse and either select an existing folder or click New Folder.

For immutable Veeam backups, DO NOT CHECK the "make recent backups immutable" check list.

Myota utilizes built-in immutability features that effectively reduce overall storage costs. Unlike Veeam, which applies immutability and retention policies at the application level, Myota manages these functions directly at the data layer within its protected data shards. This design approach eliminates the additional overhead typically associated with Veeam's management of immutability and retention, streamlining the process and optimizing storage efficiency.

 

Step 5. Finish Working with Wizard

At the Summary step of the wizard, review details of the newly created object storage repository and click Finish.

Step 6. Create a Backup Job

You can now create a backup job pointed to the object repository just created.
