Connecting to the Storage System

Before connecting the GV-System to the storage system, make sure you have installed and set up

Microsoft iSCSI initiator.

1. At the GV-System, click the Network button, and select Backup Server. This dialog box appears.

2. Type the IP address and user name of the storage system. Modify the port if necessary.

3. If you want the system to automatically retry to build connection, specify the number of retry

attempts and the time of retry interval in seconds, and then select Retry until connected.

4. Click Connect to start the connection.

5. Once the connection is established, a Backup Server icon appears on the system tray.

Note: The storage system will follow the recycle setting on the GV-System. For example, you set the

recycle size of 800 MB on the GV-System. When the connected hard disk from the storage system

reaches the limit of 800 MB, the recycle starts and the oldest files are overwritten.
