Specify the Source

The Source page lets you specify the source nodes that you want to protect. You can select more than one node in a plan. If you have not added any nodes to the Console, you can add nodes when you create or modify a plan from the Source page. You can save a plan without adding any source nodes but the plan will not be deployed unless you add any nodes.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Source tab and then click Add Nodes.
2. Select one of the following options:

   Select Nodes to Protect

   Opens the Select Nodes to Protect dialog and you can select the nodes from the displayed list. Select this option if you have already added the nodes to the Console.

   Importing Nodes from Arcserve HA

   Opens the Add Nodes to arcserve UDP Console dialog. Select this option if you have not added the nodes and you want to manually add the nodes to protect.

3. (Optional) Select a filter from the Groups drop-down list to filter nodes. Enter keywords to further filter your nodes.

   

   The nodes are displayed on the Available Nodes area.

4. Select the nodes from the Available Nodes area and click the Add all nodes (>>) or Add selected nodes (>) icon.

   The selected nodes are displayed on the Selected Nodes area.

5. Click OK to close the dialog.

The source is specified.
