Deploy CA ARCserve D2D to Nodes

CA ARCserve Central Protection Manager lets you discover and deploy the latest version of CA ARCserve D2D to one or more new or existing nodes.

Note: To deploy CA ARCserve D2D to computers running Windows XP, disable the Use Simple File Sharing option on the remote Windows XP computer.

Follow these steps:

  1. Log in to the application and click Node on the Navigation bar.
  2. From the Node screen, click Deploy on the toolbar.

    The License Agreement dialog opens.

  3. Read and accept the terms of the Licensing Agreement and click Next to open the D2D Deployment dialog.
  4. From the D2D Deployment dialog, specify the Group and Node Name filter for the available nodes that are based on the common criterion.

    The Name, Version, and Status for each node is displayed.

    Note: The Version column displays the current D2D version the node is running.

  5. Click the check boxes next to the nodes or click Select All for all the nodes that are listed to deploy D2D to.

    Note: When you click Select All, the option changes to Unselect All for your convenience. In addition, if you select a node from the Node list, you can edit the node fields from the Node Information tab.

  6. Click Deploy Now to deploy the latest D2D version, which is displayed on the title bar, to the nodes.

    Note: For information and deployment status on a specific node, highlight the node and select the appropriate tab in the right pane.

Note: CA ARCserve Central Protection Manager lets you install, upgrade, and deploy the latest version of CA ARCserve D2D to lower versions or nodes without CA ARCserve D2D installed using the D2D Deployment utility.
