To add a spoke server:
1. Install the DSView 3 software on the computer that will be used as a spoke server. See
Installing the DSView 3 Software on page 38.
2. Configure the computer as a spoke server. See Configuring the DSView 3 Software on page 41.
To register a hub server as a spoke server:
Only DSView 3 software administrators may access this procedure.
NOTE: When registering a hub server as a spoke server on another DSView 3 software system, the information
on the hub server being registered will be lost. Its database will be updated to match the new hub server to which
it is being registered.
1. Click the System tab.
2. Click DSView Server in the top navigation bar. The side navigation bar will include the name
of the server to which you are logged in.
3. Select Tools in the side navigation bar. The DSView Server Tools window will open.
4. Click the Register as Spoke Server icon or text. The Register Spoke Server Wizard will appear.
Click Next.
5. The Type in Hub DSView Server Address window will open.
a. Type the IP address of the hub server in standard dot notation (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) or the
domain name of the hub server.
b. Type the port number for the hub server.
If the default hub server port value (443) is modified, you must specify it when registering
a spoke server so that register requests will be sent to the correct port on the hub server.
For example, if the IP address of the hub server is 10.0.0.1 and the port number is changed
to 444, type
Server Wizard.
c. Click Next.
6. The Operation in Progress window will open briefly, followed by the Accept Hub DSView
Server Certificate window. Click Next.
Cause
Certificates on the hub server and spoke servers do not match. See Managing hub and
spoke server certificates on page 54 for information about updating the server
certificates so that they will match.
A server responded, but it is not compatible with the DSView 3 software. This typically
occurs when communication is attempted with a server that does not contain the
software, or if either server contains an older version of the software. Ensure that both
servers are running the same DSView 3 software version.
