Add HP Cell Manager servers to IT Analytics

On the Portal, repeat these steps for each HP Data Protector Cell Manager server.

  1. Open a browser window and point it to your instance of the Portal (for example: http://aptareportal.yourdomain.com).

  2. Login as an admin user (e.g. admin@yourdomain.com).

  3. Add a Backup Server. This can be done directly from the data collector policy or from the Inventory.

    See Adding and Editing Hosts and Backup Servers .

  4. Enter values for all required fields (denoted by an *) and click OK. The field, Internal Host Name, needs to match the host name of the HP Cell Manager Server. Ensure you select HP Cell Manager Server as the Type. The fields External Name, Make and Model are not used by the application for anything other than display purposes.

  5. Select the Host Group while you are adding the backup server.

Note:

If a server group hierarchy has already been established in the application, you can select the host group to which you would like the HP Cell Manager Server to belong, although it is recommended that you add the HP Cell Manager Server to the top-level folder.
