Installing on Western Digital NAS

You can install a Western Digital MyCloud package with either all NAKIVO Backup & Replication components (Director, Transporter, Backup Repository) or a Transporter only. The following  packages are available:

  • Western Digital MyCloud DL2100 package

  • Western Digital MyCloud DL2100 Transporter package

  • Western Digital MyCloud DL4100 package

  • Western Digital MyCloud DL4100 Transporter package

  • Western Digital MyCloud PR2100 package

  • Western Digital MyCloud PR 2100 Transporter package

  • Western Digital MyCloud PR 4100 package

  • Western Digital MyCloud PR 4100 Transporter package

NAKIVO Backup & Replication can be installed directly on a Western Digital MyCloud NAS to create your own, high-performance backup appliance. With this appliance, all VM data protection components are unified in a single system that is quick to deploy and easy to manage, while also not consuming your environment's valuable resources. Moreover, you are getting an all-in-one backup hardware, backup software, backup storage, and data deduplication in a single box. This results in a zero VMware footprint, less power and cooling, less required maintenance, time, money, and – most of all – higher VM backup performance.

NAKIVO Backup & Replication is installed on a NAS hard drive (not on the NAS Flash memory), so if you remove the hard drive from the NAS you will also remove the product from it.

Note
A pre-shared key is not created during Transporter-only installation. When adding this Transporter to NAKIVO Backup & Rep
