To configure a user account for Retention Lock Compliance Edition with specific role and password policies on a PowerProtect DD system, follow these steps:

Step 1: Access the User Management Section

In the DD System Manager interface, go to Administration or Users (exact location may vary).

Look for an option to manage user accounts.

Step 2: Create or Verify the Account

If the account asterix1 already exists:

Select the user and edit the properties.

If the account does not exist:

Click on Add User or Create New User.

Enter the Username as asterix1.

Set the Password as password2.

Step 3: Assign the Compliance Role

Ensure that asterix1 is assigned the correct role, which is usually Security Officer or a similar role necessary for Retention Lock Compliance.

This role allows the user to manage and enforce compliance-related settings on the system.

Step 4: Set Password Expiration Policy

Configure the Password Aging Policy:

Set Password Expiration or Maximum Days to 180 days.

Ensure Minimum Days and Warning Days are set as needed or required by the compliance policy.

Step 5: Save and Verify

Save the changes and verify that the account asterix1 is now listed with the appropriate role and password settings.

This configuration ensures that the asterix1 account is in place with the correct permissions and that the password is set to expire after 180 days. Let me know if you need more assistance!

To schedule space reclamation on a PowerProtect DD system as specified, here’s the general procedure to follow in the DD System Manager:

Log into DD System Manager: Access the management interface for your PowerProtect DD system.

Navigate to Data Management: In the sidebar, look for an option labeled Data Management or similar (may vary slightly depending on the exact DD OS version).

Select Space Reclamation: Within Data Management, find and select Space Reclamation settings.

Set Schedule:

Click on Schedule and choose to add a new schedule if not already present.

Set the Day to Monday.

Set the Time to 4:00 AM.

Configure Resource Limit:

Look for an option to limit the resource usage for the reclamation task.

Set the Maximum System Resource Usage (or a similarly named option) to 25% to avoid impacting the system performance excessively.

Save the Schedule: Confirm and save your settings.

Verify the Schedule: Check that the schedule appears correctly in the list, indicating it will run every Monday at 4:00 AM with the specified resource usage limit.

After completing these steps, the PowerProtect DD system should reclaim space as scheduled without exceeding 25% resource usage, minimizing its impact on other system operations.

RADIUS is commonly supported in PowerProtect DD for external authentication, allowing integration with centralized authentication systems for user management and access control.

Explanation: Once data is stored in the cloud tier, changing its encryption status is not possible due to data integrity and compliance constraints. Ensuring encryption settings are configured correctly before data migration is essential to secure storage in cloud environments. When data is moved to the cloud tier in a PowerProtect DD environment, the encryption status is locked in for that data. This means that once data has been stored in the cloud with encryption either enabled or disabled, this setting cannot be altered retroactively for that data. Cloud tier encryption provides secure data storage in the cloud, but any modification to encryption preferences would only apply to new data moved to the cloud after the change. This constraint ensures data consistency and integrity within the cloud storage environment.
