Main toolbar

The Main toolbar appears at the top of the vRanger UI and includes the drop-down menus described in the following table.

 
 

File

The only submenu available under File is Exit. Click it to close the application.

Tools
•

•
Virtual Appliance Deployment Wizard: Select this command to start the Virtual Appliance Deployment Wizard, through which you can deploy and configure vRanger virtual appliances for backup and replication.

Help
•
Help Contents: Select this command to view online help.

The dialog box features a window and submenus that let you view remote computers and system history.

The About vRanger screen includes a System Info button that collects information about the vRanger machine. You may export this information to a text to aid interactions with Quest Support.

Status Bar

Using vRanger > Main toolbar > Status Bar

Status Bar

In every view, several icons display in the Status Bar at the bottom of the vRanger UI. Regardless of the view displayed, the Status Bar always gives you a glimpse of active job and task count. Using the example from the following table, the Active Jobs Count (4) corresponds to the first number in the My Jobs: Current Jobs node. The Active Tasks Count (2) corresponds to the second number at the same node level. That is, these counts display in this format in My Jobs: Current Jobs (4,2).

 
 

Service Support Logging: Right-click this icon to enable log files to help in troubleshooting Windows® vRanger service.

Client Support Logging: Right-click this icon to enable log files to help in troubleshooting the vRanger UI.

Active Jobs Count: This indicator tells you the total number of active backup, restore, and replication jobs running in real time.

Active Tasks Count: This indicator tells you the total number of active backup, restore, and replication tasks running in real time.

New Failed Jobs: Indicates that there are new failed jobs.

When you click the New Failed Jobs icon, this action resets the data in the Status Bar. In place of the new failed jobs icon, this icon appears and the active job and task counts are reset, populating with zeroes (0) initially.

My Inventory view

Using vRanger > My Inventory view

My Inventory view

The My Inventory view displays the virtual infrastructure, configured jobs, and job details. It consists of the My Inventory pane on the left and the Working Inventory pane on the right. This view is the one from which most backup and replication jobs are added.

My Inventory pane

Using vRanger > My Inventory view > My Inventory pane

My Inventory pane

The My Inventory pane offers four tabs — one to show the infrastructure of VMware® VMs, one to show the inventory of Hyper-V® VMs, one for physical servers, and one to show the inventory of VMware vCloud Director® servers.

From this pane, you can navigate and refresh the tree; add or remove connections to VCs or VMware® ESXi™ servers; and add credentials to virtual servers. You can also add a backup or replication job.
