PowerProtect Data Manager 19.16 File System User Guide

Disable an asset source

If you enabled an asset source that you no longer require, and the host has not been registered in PowerProtect Data Manager, perform the following steps to disable the asset source.

About this task

NOTE:An asset source cannot be disabled when one or more sources are still registered or there are backup copies of the source assets. For example, if you registered a vCenter server and created policy backups for the vCenter Server virtual machines, then you cannot disable the vCenter Server asset source. But if you register a vCenter server and then delete it without creating any backups, you can disable the asset source.

Steps

  1. From the PowerProtect Data Manager UI, select Infrastructure > Asset Sources, and then select the tab of the asset source that you want to disable.
    If no host registration is detected, a red Disable button appears.
  2. Click Disable.

Results

PowerProtect Data Manager removes the tab for this asset source.
