In the DNS Name or IP field, enter the FQDN or IP address of the Host.
3
In the User Name field, enter an account for the host.
4
In the User Password field, enter the password for the preceding account.
5
6
In the Port Number field, enter the preferred port you want vRanger to use to communicate with the Hyper-V host on the source server.

This port must be open between vRanger and each Hyper-V server — the default is 8081.

7
Click Connect.

The host appears in the Hosts section.

Adding a physical server

Complete the steps in the following procedure to add a physical server to vRanger protection.

To add a physical server:

2
Click the Add icon, and then click Physical Machine.

The Add Physical Machine Credentials dialog box appears.

3
In the DNS Name or IP field, enter the FQDN or IP address of the server.

In the User Password field, enter the password for the preceding account.

In the Agent Location field, enter the preferred directory — on the physical machine — to which the physical client should be installed. The default is C:\Program Files\Quest\vRangerPhysicalClient.

7
In the Port Number field, enter the preferred port for vRanger to use to communicate with the physical client on the source server.

This port must be open between vRanger and each physical server — the default is 51000.

Installing the physical client manually

vRanger requires a physical backup client to be installed on the source physical server. This process is normally done when the source server is added to the vRanger inventory, but in some circumstances it might be necessary to install the client manually.

To install the physical client manually:

The file is located in the Service subdirectory of the vRanger installation folder. The default is C:\Program Files\Quest\vRanger\Service.

3
From the source server’s command line, run the vRangerPhysicalClient.exe command modified by the following parameters:
USERNAME: Enter the name for an account with administrative Log on as a service rights on the source server.
PASSWORD: Enter the password for the preceding account.
DOMAIN: [Optional] If no value is entered, the preceding account is considered a local account. If you use a network account, enter the domain for the account here.
INSTALL_DIR: [Optional] The default is C:\Program Files\Quest\vRangerPhysicalClient.
PORT: [Optional] The default is 51000
Command examples

The following examples show the proper syntax for using the installer.

Adding a repository

The following instructions describe how to add a CIFS repository to vRanger. For information about adding other types of repositories, see Supplemental instructions: additional repository types.

To add a repository:
2
In the Add Windows Network Share Repository dialog box, complete the following fields:
Repository Name: Enter a name for the repository.
Description: [Optional] Enter a long-form description for the repository.
User Name and Password: Enter the credentials for accessing the CIFS share.
Security Protocol: Select a protocol, NTLM (default) or NTLMv2.
Server: Enter the path to the preferred directory. Alternatively, you may enter the server IP or DNS name and click Browse, and browse to the correct path.
3
If you want these backups password-protected, select Encrypt all backups to this repository, enter a Password for the encrypted repository, and then confirm the password by re-entering it.
CAUTION: If you use the Encrypt all backups to this repository feature, make certain to retain the password you enter. There is no back-door or administrator-level password. If the password is unknown, the backups are not usable.
4

The connection to the repository is tested and the repository is added to the My Repositories pane and the Repository Information dialog box.
