Installing Data Protector Express on other machines

The Data Protector Express installation on the HP Storage System acts as the master server for a Data
Protector Express Management Domain. If you wish to use the ASM system as a Disk-To-Disk (D2D)
backup target for other clients or servers, you may install Data Protector Express on those machines
and join the management domain.
NOTE:
Installing Data Protector Express on other servers is not required to backup Exchange, SQL Server,
or User-Defined applications, when those applications are hosted by ASM. The instructions provided
here are only needed if a user wishes to use ASM as a backup target for additional user data in their
environment.
The HP Storage System provides the Data Protector Express installer at c:\hpnas\components\dpx.
This installer may be used to install Data Protector Express on 32–bit or 64–bit Windows operating
systems. As an alternative, and for Linux installations, you may also download and install Data Protector
Express from http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storage/software/datapexp/.
1. When installing Data Protector Express on another machine, select Join an existing Data Protector
Express domain.
2. When prompted, provide the hostname or IP address (IPv4) of the HP Storage System.
An unlimited number of client platforms such as Windows XP and Vista may be added to the Data
Protector Express domain managed by the HP Storage System. Server platforms such as Windows
Server 2003 will require one license per protected server. The following license is required for server
platforms such as Windows Server 2003:HP Data Protector Express Network Client Agent BB121AA.
You may use ASM to create and manage storage for Data Protector Express virtual libraries on the
HP Storage System. You may then create backup jobs in Data Protector Express that use these virtual
libraries as targets for Disk-to-Disk backups of your protected clients and servers. See
"Using the Create a Virtual Library
NOTE:
When manually creating or modifying backup jobs that were not created by ASM, do not use the
Data Protector Express ASMbackup account. It is recommended that you create other Data Protector
Express user accounts as needed.

Running replication

From the Replication property tab, you can configure data replication, the process of copying live
data and snapshots (if the target system is also running ASM) from your HP Storage System to another
system that is running HP StorageWorks Storage Mirroring.
