Adding controller appliances

The first time you start the console, the Manage Servers page is empty. In order to protect and monitor your virtual machines, you must insert your controller appliance in the console.

1. Select Get Started from the toolbar.
2. Select Add servers and click Next.
3. On the Manual Entry tab, specify the controller appliance information.
• Server—This is the name or IP address of the controller appliance to be added to the console.
• User name—Specify the root user or another user that has the administrator role on the appliance.
• Password—Specify the password associated with the User name you entered.
4. You can expand the More Options section to configure the following settings.
• Domain—If you are working in a domain environment, specify the Domain.
• Associate with Double-Take Linux Appliance—This field is not applicable to agentless vSphere jobs.
5. After you have specified the appliance information, click Add.
6. Do not insert your replication appliances. The replication appliances will be inserted into the console using the Add Replication Appliances pages. See Adding replication appliances.
7. If you need to remove appliances from the list of Servers to be added, highlight it and click Remove. You can also remove all of them with the Remove All button.

8. When your list of Servers to be added is complete, click OK.
