Nutanix Objects is an S3-compatible backup provider. Configuration as the backup destination is similar to AWS S3.

## Example

In this step, complete the name, retention, add: API URL, Access key, and Secret key, indicate the name of the bucket to be used.

Then go to the `AMAZON S3/S3-COMPATIBLE SETTINGS` the segment in which you should **deselect** the `Parallel Download enabled` option for Nutanix Objects.
