Appliance administration
The ACM provides a graphical, web-based interface for configuring, monitoring, and
upgrading the appliance.
The ACM dashboard displays a summary of the configuration of the individual
components. It also enables the administrators to monitor the appliance, change
configuration details such as changing the Data Domain disk capacity, changing the
common password for the appliance, change LDAP settings, update customer
information, and change the values in the General Settings panel. The ACM dashboard
enables you to upgrade the system and its components. It also displays the health
information of the Appliance Server and VMware components.
Backup administration
The IDPA uses Avamar Virtual Edition (AVE) servers to perform backup operations,
with the data being stored in a Data Domain system. For the most part, when using
the Avamar Administrator Management Console, all Avamar servers look and behave
the same. The main differences among the Avamar server configurations are the
number of nodes and disk drives that are reported in the server monitor.
You can also add Avamar NDMP Accelerators to enable backup and recovery of NAS
systems. The Avamar NDMP Accelerator uses the network data management protocol
(NDMP) to enable backup and recovery of network-attached storage (NAS) systems.
The accelerator performs NDMP processing and then sends the data directly to the
Data Domain Server.
Reporting and Analytics
The Reporting and Analytics feature offers a robust reporting functionality with
dedicated sections for various features. These reports help you retrieve information
about the environment so that you can review and analyze the activities in the
environment. Using these reports, you can identify outages in the environment,
diagnose problems, plan to mitigate risks, and forecast future trends. You can also run
system and customized reports, dashboard templates, and schedule the reports
generation as per your requirements.
Search
The Search feature provides a powerful way to search backup data within the IDPA
and then restore the backup data based on the results of the Search. Scheduled
collection activities are used to gather and index the metadata (such as keyword,
name, type, location, size, and backup server/client, or indexed content) of the
backup, which is then stored within the IDPA.
Disaster recovery
The CDRA is a solution, which enables disaster recovery of one or more on-premises
virtual machines (VMs) to the cloud. CDRA integrates with the existing on-premises
backup software and a Data Domain system to copy the VM backups to the cloud. It
can then run a disaster recovery test or a failover, which converts a VM to an Amazon
Web Services Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instance, and then runs this instance in
the cloud.
