PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance 5.16.0.0 Administrator's Guide for DM5500

Assign a virtual network by asset

This procedure is optional. You can assign a virtual network for individual assets or for all assets on a particular application host.

About this task

This setting overrides the network assignment from the protection policy. If PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance cannot use this network assignment for any reason, the setting falls back to the assignment from the protection policy.

NOTE:You cannot back up individual assets across different networks on the same protection policy and application host. Instead, create a separate protection policy for the assets on each network.

Steps

  1. From the PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance UI, select Infrastructure > Assets.
    The Assets window appears.
  2. Locate the appropriate assets from the list on any tab.
    Use the checkbox to select each asset. You can select more than one asset at a time.
  3. Click More Actions > Assign Network.
    The Associated Assets window opens.
  4. To use the virtual network for all assets on the same application host, click Include.
    Otherwise, to use the virtual network for only the selected assets, click Do Not Include. Consider whether you require a separate protection policy for assets on different networks.
    The Assign Network window opens.
  5. Select a virtual network from the Network Label list, and then click Save.

Results

The PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance applies the network selection to the selected assets. The Network column in the list of assets for each tab now indicates the selected virtual network.
