Steps to Configure the Data Collector Server in Cell Manager

The HP Data Protector UI can be deployed in a number of ways. The steps you take depend on whether you are using the original Data Protector UI (Windows only) or the Data Protector Java UI. Details for both user interfaces are provided in the steps below.

On the HP Data Protector Cell Manager Server:

  1. Start the HP Data Protector UI (choose one of the following User Interfaces).

    • Original Data Protector UI (Windows only):

      Start > Programs > HP Data Protector > Data Protector Manager

    • Data Protector Java UI (Windows):

      Start > Programs > HP Data Protector > Data Protector Java GUI Manager

      Then, in the Connect to Cell Manager dialog, select or type the name of the Cell Manager and click Connect.

    • Data Protector Java UI (Linux):

      /opt/omni/java/client/bin/javadpgui.sh
  2. Make sure that you have a user that is a Local System Administrator account from the Data Collector Server.
