3. Performing Additional Tasks¶

Normally, you only need to create and run a VM with Acronis Storage on Azure to be able to store backups in the Azure cloud. Logging in to Acronis Storage itself is not required.

If, however, you need to perform some additional tasks that require you to log in to Acronis Storage, you can access your Azure VM using the domain name and user credentials specified during VM deployment. You will also need to open a port to the VM.

The tasks related to Backup Gateway that you can perform in Acronis Storage are described in the more general Acronis Backup Gateway Quick Start Guide:

• Connecting to Public Cloud Storage via Acronis Backup Gateway
• Migrating Backups from Older Solutions
• Monitoring Acronis Backup Gateway
• Releasing Nodes from Acronis Backup Gateway
