Configure the DS-System to connect to a Remote DS-VDR Tool


The Remote DS-VDR Tool is configured from the DS-Operator GUI.

You must have at least one Remote DS-VDR Tool daemon running on a remote server accessible from the DS-System via TCP/IP on port 4406 (default). DS-Systems can be configured to use one or more Remote DS-VDR Tools.

When a backup set is configured for DS-VDR, the latest backed up generation is automatically restored to a stand-by VMware server. In the event the protected customer suffers a disaster or other event that requires them to use the DS-VDR service, they can simply contact their Service Provider and switch immediately to the stand-by VMware server(s).

You must have at least one Remote DS-VDR Tool daemon running on a remote server. However, DS-System can be configured to use multiple DS-VDR Tools.

1. DS-VDR Menu > Configure Remote DS-VDR Servers.

2. The "Configure Remote DS-VDR Servers" screen appears.

F1 Help: See "Configure Remote DS-VDR Servers".

3. To add, click "Add".

To modify, highlight a server from the list and click "Modify".

4. Click "OK" or "Apply" to save the remote DS-VDR Tool settings.

NOTE: The DS-VDR Tool (daemon) must be running on the server at the IP address you specify.
