Iperius Backup: connect your Leviia object storage (S3 compatible)

To connect Iperius Backup to your Leviia object storage space, you must first create an identifier and a bucket. For your information, the free version of the software does not allow you to use the S3 protocol for your backups, but a 21-day trial period gives you access to the software's advanced features.

Iperius Backup currently supports only version 2 of the signature when connecting to your Leviia object storage space.

Open Iperius Backup and create a new backup set.


In the Items tab, click on the icon to add a folder or file.


In the window that opens, click on "Select" and browse for the file or folder you wish to save. For this example, we've created a folder called "Iperius Backup". Confirm by clicking on "Ok".




Go to the Destinations tab and add a destination to the cloud.


On the window that opens, click on the icon for adding an account, then enter your S3 account information as below:
Name : enter a name for your backup, for this example we'll use "Test Iperius S3".
Type : S3.
Access Key ID : the access key for your identifier, which you will find on the dashboard in the "identifiers" section.
Secret Access Key : the secret key of your identifier that you will find on the dashboard in the "identifiers" section.
Service Point (URL) : the server address that you will find on the dashboard in the "Endpoint" section.
Signature version : v4

Leave the "Use SSL" option checked and click "Save".


Then click on OK.


Click on "Next".


The schedule window allows you to schedule your backups; for this example, we've left it blank.


The options window allows you to send yourself an e-mail at the end of the backup; for this example, we've left it blank.


The backup set summary appears, click on "OK".


The set backup set appears, you can launch it manually by clicking on "Launch selected backup set".


The backup starts and the window warns you when it has finished.


You've just set up a backup set with Iperius Backup by connecting it to your Leviia object storage space.
