Adding a primary server or an appliance primary server in the OpsCenter console
You must add a primary server or an appliance primary server to the OpsCenter console so that it can be monitored. Use the following procedure to add a primary server or an appliance primary server.
To add a primary server or an appliance primary server
- In the OpsCenter console, select Settings > Configurations > NetBackup .
- Click Add.
- Enter the required details for the primary server.
See Settings > Configuration > NetBackup > Add Primary Server options.
- Click the Test Connection button to validate the information that you entered. This would validate the credentials for the primary server.
- Click Save and Add more to save the primary server and to add more primary servers.
- Click Save and Close to save the primary server.
Alternately, you can click Cancel to exit.
- In case you add an appliance 2.0 primary server, restart all appliance services or processes only if OpsCenter cannot connect to the Appliance primary server. See the Appliance documentation for details on how to restart services.
