Source Code Availability

The DR Series system documentation contains topics that explain how to use the Dell DR Series system to perform data storage operations and manage storage and replication containers. The topics in this administrator’s guide introduce and describe the DR Series system graphical user interface (GUI), which you use to manage your backup and replication operations. You can access this comprehensive GUI and the associated DR Series system features and capabilities via a supported web browser.

In addition to the DR Series system GUI, another method for managing the DR Series system is a command-line interface (CLI). In some instances, the DR Series system GUI may provide additional features and options that are not available in the DR Series system CLI and vice versa. For example, Global View is only available in the GUI, while the ability to add and remove clients in only available in the CLI. For more information about the DR Series system CLI commands, see the Dell DR Series System Command Line Reference Guide.
