Summary
This chapter reviewed the hardened repository and its components. We looked at how to add a Linux server to the Veeam console using single-use credentials for security. We also looked at how to use the Linux (XFS) server as a repository. We covered how using single-use credentials allows you to secure your servers by turning off the SSH server or enabling MFA. Then, we learned how to create a backup job to use the hardened repository and learned how the system does not allow this when you're trying to delete files due to the immutability flag.
Hopefully, you have a better idea of hardened repositories. The next chapter will look at how to make changes and enhancements within these areas in Veeam Backup & Replication v11a.
