Adding a Destination
The first step in backing up your SAFARI Montage data is adding a backup destination. To add a
destination, click the “Add Destination” button under the Data Recovery menu in the left
navigation menu. The form shown below will display. Fill in the form fields to point to a
SAMBA or Windows file share on your network. Click the “Add Destination” button to add the
destination to your backup destinations list. As soon as you click “Add Destination”, the backup
system will attempt to connect to the destination to verify its validity.
• Destination Name: Your personal name for this backup destination. Destination Name can be
anything you prefer. It does not affect the connection to the remote share.
• Remote Machine Name: The name of the destination machine on your network. This name
should not be prefixed with double backslashes (\\) or foreslashes (//).
• Remote IP or Hostname: The IP address on the destination machine. The IP is used if the
name resolution for Remote Machine Name fails. A fully qualified hostname can also be used
here, for example, backup.yourschool.edu.
• Remote Share Name: The name of the share on the remote (destination) machine. Make sure
the remote share has granted read, write, and delete permissions to the specified user.
• Domain: If the permissions on the remote share use a domain user account, you must specify
that domain here. To use a local user account on the backup destination, you may leave this
field blank.
