2 Configuring a backup job on ASG-Time Navigator for a
CIFS target
This procedure describes how to initiate and configure a backup job using ASG-Time Navigator with the
DR Series system. The high level steps are as follows:
1. Configure CIFS container as a TiNa-library (i.e., backup device)
2. Create a media pool and attach the TiNa library to this media pool
3. Configure the TiNa backup strategy
4. Select source data and start a backup job
2.1 Configuring a CIFS container as a TiNa-library
1. Open the Time Navigator Administration Console by going to Start > All Programs >
TimeNavigator > Administration. Configure the CIFS container as a TiNa-library (backup device)
in the form of a virtual library system.
2. Login to catalog.
3. Go to Devices > Library > New.
