Refreshing Federated Repositories

By default, NAKIVO Backup & Replication refreshes federated repository information hourly. During the refreshing process, the product collects all required information about federated repositories, such as the amount of available free space, number of backups, and number of recovery points.

Only one federated repository is refreshed at a time. Therefore, if you attempt to refresh multiple federated repositories, while one is being refreshed, all other federated repositories are queued.

To refresh a federated repository, follow the steps below:

In the main menu of NAKIVO Backup & Replication, click Settings.

  1. Go to the Repositories tab.

  2. Hover over a Federated repository.

  3. On the right side, click Manage.

  4. Click Refresh.

The federated repository refresh process begins.
