Dell DL1000 Appliance User's Guide

The Core is the central component of the DL1000 deployment architecture. The Core stores and manages machine backups and provides services for backup, recovery, retention, replication, archival, and management. The Core is a self-contained network, addressable computer that runs a 64-bit version of Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Foundation and Standard operating systems. The appliance performs target-based inline compression, encryption, and data deduplication of the data received from the agent. The Core then stores the snapshot backups in the repository, which resides on the appliance. Cores are paired for replication.

The repository resides on internal storage within the Core. The Core is managed by accessing the following URL from a JavaScript enabled web browser: https://CORENAME:8006/apprecovery/admin.
