After you register an application host with
PowerProtect Data Manager, the host appears in the
Asset Sources window. Then you can select the host and perform discovery. For application hosts, discovery is required if you want to schedule a backup. Assets must also be discovered for the centralized copy management of self-service backups.
About this task
Perform the following steps to discover an Exchange application host as an asset source in the
PowerProtect Data Manager UI.
Steps
Select
Infrastructure > Asset Sources.
The
Asset Sources window appears.
Select the
Exchange Server Host tab.
After you select the host, click
Discover.
NOTE On the
Exchange Server Host tab, you can click
Discover at any time if any additions or other changes to your Asset Sources have taken place outside of the
PowerProtect Data Manager environment. Asset discovery is also initiated by default after registration of the host to
PowerProtect Data Manager and at hourly intervals. Discovery time is based on networking bandwidth. Each time you initiate a discovery process, the resources that are discovered and those that are handling the discovery impact the system performance.
Click
Save.
Results
If the application host is properly configured and discovery is successful, the database assets can now be added to a
PowerProtect Data Manager protection policy.
