Adding physical servers to inventory

vRanger includes the ability to back up and restore physical servers. Before you can back up a physical server, you must add it to the vRanger inventory and supply credentials with Administrator access to the server.

Scheduling a backup job

With a VMware® vCenter™ and a Repository configured, the next step is to schedule a backup job.

To schedule a backup job:
1
Select an object to back up.
You may select any vCenter object — VM, Host, Datacenter, and so on — or a physical server.
2
To start the Backup Wizard, do one of the following:
•
Click the Add drop-down menu, and then click Backup Job.
•
Right-click the object you want to back up, and then click Backup <selected object>.
3

For more information about the Backup Wizard or available options, see Backup.

 

 

Scheduling a replication job

With a VMware® vCenter™ and a VA or VAs — if necessary — configured, the next step is to configure a replication job.

To schedule a replication job:
1
Select a VM to replicate.
2
To start the Replication Job Wizard, do one of the following:
•
Click the Add drop-down menu, and then click Replication Job.
•
Right-click the VM you want to replicate, and then click Replicate <VMname>.
3
Enter a name and description for the job.

Differential is the most common option.
6
Map networks for the target VM.
7
Select the disk or disks to replicate.
8
Configure job options.

Configuring vRanger

Configuration overview

Before configure vRanger, confirm that you have access to all user names, passwords, and root passwords for the VMware® ESXi™ hosts that you intend to use.

vRanger requires some basic configurations to ensure that the software functions properly. You complete the initial configuration through the Startup Wizard, which starts when you first install vRanger. If you would rather configure settings through the menu commands and icons on the main vRanger screen, you can do so. In either case, you can revise the settings at any time.

After completing the basic configuration process, you can use either the Startup Wizard or the Configuration Options dialog box to manage your settings. Although the Configuration Options dialog box offers some functionality that the Startup Wizard does not, you can use either method to manage host licensing or email server data. Only the Configuration Options dialog box lets you manage resources on the task level. Given the role that tasks play in making backup and restore jobs, this resource is vital.
