Configuring host name and domain settings

You must assign a host name for the appliance. It is recommended that you change the host name before starting backups. By default, the host name is the system name that the operating system assigns.
  • NOTE: If you plan to change the host name, it is recommended that you change the host name at this stage. Changing the host name after completing the AppAssure Appliance Configuration wizard requires you to perform several steps.

To configure the host name and domain settings:

  1. On the Configure host name and domain setting page, in New host name text box enter an appropriate host name.
  2. If you do not want to connect your appliance to a domain, select No in Do you want this appliance to join a domain?
    • NOTE:  If your DL1000 is installed with Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Foundation edition, the option to join a domain will be disabled.
    By default, Yes is selected.
  3. If you want to connect your appliance to a domain, enter the following details:
    • Domain name
    • Domain user name
      • NOTE: The domain user must have local administrative rights.
    • Domain user password
  4. Click Next.
    • NOTE: Changing the host name or the domain requires restarting the machine. After restarting, the AppAssure Appliance Configuration wizard is launched automatically. If the appliance is connected to a domain, after restarting the machine, you must log in as a domain user with administrative privileges on the appliance.
    The Configure SNMP Settings page is displayed.
