The system might not be usable for up to three hours if the NVRAM
batteries are discharged. Refer to the NVRAM Battery Charging Instructions for
more information.

sections to the configuration: Licenses, Network, File System, System, CIFS,
and NFS.
You can configure the system via either the Data Domain Enterprise Manager
(recommended) or the command-line interface (CLI). The Enterprise Manager
is a Web-based, graphical-user interface (GUI) application.
Note:
The Data Domain system must have an IP address to use the Enterprise
Manager. The system must be able to communicate with the internet.
To use the Enterprise Manager, open a web browser and enter the path to
the Data Domain system; for example, enter http://dd01/ where dd01
is the system name. Select your system in the Navigational panel, then select
Maintenance > System. From the Tasks menu, select Launch Configuration
Wizard.
Select one of the configuration sections and follow the instructions on the
screen.
