Benefits of Java GUI

The Data Protector Java GUI has the following advantages over the original Data

Protector GUI:

• Portability

The Data Protector Java GUI architecture enables you to install Java GUI Clients

on all platforms that support Java Runtime Environment (JRE).

• Easy firewall configuration

The Java GUI Client uses port 5556 to connect to the Java GUI Server. It is easier

to configure Java GUI in a firewall environment because only one port needs to

be opened. The communication between the Java GUI Client and the Java GUI

Server is done through HTTP, which is also firewall friendlier.

For details, see the Data Protector support matrices under specifications at http:/

/www.hp.com/support/manuals.

• Improved localization and internationalization

Only one installation package is needed for all locales. The Java GUI enables

better display in all locales, since controls are automatically resized to match the

size of the text.

• Non-blocking behavior

The Java GUI Server transmits only data for the current context, which reduces

the network traffic between the Java GUI Server and the Java GUI Client. Due to

its non-blocking behavior, you can work on different contexts while Java GUI

Server processes your requests in the background.

Differences from the Original Data Protector GUI

Due to the different underlying technologies used, there are also some visual and

minor functional differences between the two GUIs. These differences do not have

an important impact on the functionality of Data Protector.

For example, in the Clients context, if you view the Security tab in a client’s properties,

browsing the network behaves differently depending on the GUI used:

• The original Data Protector GUI (on Windows systems only) displays the network

neighborhood of the GUI client.

• The Data Protector Java GUI displays the network neighborhood of the Cell

Manager and not of the GUI client. Browsing is available only with a Windows

Cell Manager; however, it makes no difference if the GUI runs on a Windows

or UNIX system.
