Using the CA ARCserve D2D Probe for Nimsoft › How to Deploy and Use the CA ARCserve D2D Probe for Nimsoft › Deploy the D2D Probe to the D2D Server

Deploy the D2D Probe to the D2D Server

After importing the D2D probe package to the Nimsoft server, you can deploy the package to the D2D server using the Nimsoft Infrastructure Manager. You drag and drop the D2D probe package to the robot on the D2D server. After the D2D probe is deployed to the D2D server, the probe sends the D2D alerts and backup statuses to the Nimsoft server. For more information about the Nimsoft Infrastructure Manager, see the CA Nimsoft Monitor Infrastructure Manager Reference and User Guide.

Note: If you change the CA ARCserve D2D communication protocol (HTTP or HTTPS) or you change the port number after the D2D probe is deployed, D2D alerts will not be sent until the probe is restarted.

Follow these steps:

1. Log in to the Nimsoft Infrastructure Manager as Administrator.

   The Nimsoft Infrastructure Manager interface is displayed.

2. From the Console pane, expand the Archive listing. Select your Nimsoft hub, and click Application.

   The D2D probe is listed on the right pane.

3. Drag-and-drop the D2D probe from the right pane onto the Nimsoft robot running on the D2D server (listed on the Console pane).

   The View Distribution Progress dialog is displayed to show the status of the deployment.

   

4. Click Close Dialog after the deployment is complete.
5. Select the robot and click Application to verify the status of the D2D probe on the right panel.

   A green dot symbol indicates that the probe is successfully deployed.

   

The D2D probe is deployed on the D2D server and is ready to send the D2D data to the Nimsoft server.
