Identifying a server

From the Replication Console, you can see server identity information, including a server's Double-Take Availability activation code.

1. Open the Replication Console and right-click the server on the left pane of the Replication Console.
2. Select Properties
3. Select the General tab.

4. Specify the server identity information. Some of the fields are informational only.

• Nickname—A nickname is saved in the Replication Console workspace, therefore, it only appears in the Replication Console on this server. It is not communicated across the network. If you export a workspace and use it on another Double-Take Availability server, the server nickname will appear there also.
• Machine—This is the actual server name. This field is not modifiable.
• Parent Group—This is the group in the Replication Console server
• Addresses—The IP address(es) for this server are listed in this field. This information is not modifiable and is displayed for your information. The machine’s primary address is listed first.
• Client Transmit Port—This field displays the port that the Replication Console uses to send commands to a server. This port cannot be modified.
• Discovery Method—This field indicates the method in which the Replication Console identifies the Double-Take Availability server. Manual indicates a server was manually inserted into the Replication Console server tree. Active Directory indicates a server is registered with Windows Active Directory.
• Operating System—The server’s operating system version is displayed.
• Product Information—The Double-Take service name and the build number are displayed.

5. Click OK to save the settings.
