Using Datto Backup for Microsoft Azure

If you are running backups with Datto Backup for Microsoft Azure (DBMA), you can integrate DBMA to manage your backups right from the UniView Portal. Start by adding the integration as described in Integrating Datto Portal. Once the integration has been added, the Microsoft Azure view displays on the Dashboard page. To access this view, click Dashboard > Microsoft Azure:

The Microsoft Azure view provides summary and status information about the assets you protect with the Datto DBMA backup product. Assets that meet these criteria display on the page: the asset is a Datto CloudSIRIS model and its Datto client has been mapped to a UniView Portal organization. Datto clients were automatically mapped to organizations when the Datto Portal integration was added to UniView Portal. As clients are added to the Datto Portal, they are added to UniView Portal and automatically mapped to organizations. (If needed, you can modify organization mappings as described in Mapping Datto Portal clients to organizations.)

NOTE  If you do not see the Microsoft Azure view, add the Datto Portal integration as described in Integrating Datto Portal.
