Initial System Settings
6 DD400 Series Restorer User Guide
• DHCP is enabled or not enabled for each Ethernet interface, as you choose during installation.
• Each active interface has an IP address.
• The restorer hostname is set (for use by the network).
• The IP addresses are set for the backup servers, SMTP server, and administrative hosts.
• An SMTP (mail) server is identified.
• For NFS clients, the restorer is set up to export the /backup and /ddvar directories using
NFSv3 over TCP. For CIFS clients, the restorer has shares set up for
/backup and /ddvar.
The directories under
/ddvar are:
- core — The default destination for core files created by the system.
- log — The destination for all system log files. See “Log File Management” on page 167
for details.
- releases — The default destination for operating system upgrades that are downloaded
from the Data Domain Support web site.
- snmp — The location of the SNMP MIB (management information base).
- traces — The destination for execution traces used in debugging performance issues.
• One or more backup servers are identified as restorer NFS or CIFS clients.
• A host is identified for restorer administration. Administrative users have access to the
partition
/ddvar. The partition is small and data in the partition is not compressed.
• The time zone you select is set.
• The initial user for the system is sysadmin with the password that you give during setup. The
user command allows you to later add administrative and non-administrative users later.
• The SSH service is enabled and the HTTP, FTP, TELNET, and SNMP services are disabled.
Use the
adminaccess command to enable and disable services.
• The user lists for TELNET and FTP are empty, SNMP is not configured, and the protocols are
disabled, meaning that no users can connect through TELNET, FTP, or SNMP.

address and an address that you give during set up. You can add addresses to the email list
using the
autosupport command.
• An email list for system alerts that are automatically generated has a Data Domain email
address and a local address that you enter during set up. You can add addresses to the email list
using the
alerts command
• The clean operation is scheduled for Tuesday at 6:00 a.m. To review or change the schedule,
