Manual Cloud Tiering of protected assets

Once you add assets to a protection policy that contains a Cloud Tierobjective, you can perform a manual tiering of these assets by using the PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance UI.

NOTE: Manual Cloud Tiering of a copy set requires the related protection policy to have a Cloud Tierobjective.

To perform on-demand Cloud Tiering:

  1. From the PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance UI, select Infrastructure > Assets.
  2. On the Assets window, select the tab for the asset type you want to tier. A list of assets appears.
  3. Select an asset from the table that has an associated protection policy, and then click View Copies.
    NOTE: You can only select one asset at a time, and the protection policy that is associated with the asset cannot be an exclusion policy.
  4. In the left pane, click cylinder icon to the right of the icon for the asset to display the available backup copies in the right pane.
  5. Select a backup copy, and then click Tier. A notification appears indicating whether the request was processed successfully.

Go to the Jobs window to monitor the progress of the tiering operation.
