Dell PowerVault DR2000v - Manual (Page 87)

3. In Container Name, type the name of the container.
Container names cannot exceed 32 characters in length, must start with a letter, and can be composed of any
combination of the following characters:
• A-Z (uppercase letters)
• a-z (lowercase letters)
• 0-9 (numbers). Do not start a container name with a number.
• dash (-) or underscore (_) special characters
NOTE: The DR Series system does not support the use of the following special characters in container
names: /, #, or @.
4. In Marker Type, select the appropriate marker that supports your DMA.
• None — Disables marker detection for the container.
• Auto — Automatically detects CommVault, Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM), ARCserve, and HP Data Protector
marker types. In addition, select this option if you need to support EMC Networker 2.0.
• Networker — Supports EMC Networker 3.0. If you need to support EMC Networker 2.0, select Auto.
• Unix Dump — Supports the Amanda marker, among others.
• BridgeHead — Supports the BridgeHead HDM marker.
Improper marker selection can result in non-optimal savings. As a best practice, if you have only one type of DMA
with traffic directed to a container, it is best to select the marker type that supports your DMA (for example,
BridgeHead, Auto, or another). Conversely, as a best practice, if you have traffic from a DMA that is not one of the
supported marker types, it is best to disable marker detection for the container by selecting the None marker type.
5. To create a container with an unassigned connection type, select No Access to create a container for
configuration at a later time.
6. Click Create a New Container .
After creating a new container, the Containers page is displayed and displays a Successfully Added dialog. The list
of containers in the Containers summary table is updated with your new unassigned container.
Editing Container Settings
To modify any of the settings for an existing container, complete the following:
1. Select Storage→ Containers.
The Containers page is displayed, and lists all current containers.
2. Click Select to identify the container in the list that you want to modify, and click Edit.
The Edit Container dialog is displayed.
3. Modify the marker type for the selected container as needed. For details, see Creating Storage Containers .
CAUTION: If you are changing the marker type on a DR6000 and you are using Rapid CIFS, you must remount
the share on the client after you change the marker type.
