Installing Data Protector Express on other machines

The Data Protector Express installation on the HP Storage System acts as the master server for a

Data Protector Express Management Domain. If you wish to use the ASM system as a Disk-To-Disk

(D2D) backup target for other clients or servers, you may install Data Protector Express on those

machines and join the management domain.

NOTE: Installing Data Protector Express on other servers is not required to backup Exchange,

SQL Server, or User-Defined applications, when those applications are hosted by ASM. The

instructions provided here are only needed if a user wishes to use ASM as a backup target for

additional user data in their environment.

You can download Data Protector Express from http://www.hp.com/go/dataprotectorexpress.

1. When installing Data Protector Express on another machine, select Join an existing Data

Protector Express domain.

2. When prompted, provide the hostname or IP address (IPv4) of the HP Storage System.

An unlimited number of client platforms such as Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7 may be

added to the Data Protector Express domain managed by the HP Storage System. Server platforms

such as Windows Server 2003 or 2008 will require one license per protected server.

For Data Protector Express 4.0, the following license is required to add a server to the backup

domain:HP Data Protector Express Network Client Agent BB121AA. For Data

Protector Express 5.0, the same license is used to create the initial backup domain on the first

server and to add additional servers to the domain. This license is sold in packs of 1, 3, or 10

servers; (TC330A, TC331A, or TC332A).

You may use ASM to create and manage storage for Data Protector Express virtual libraries on

the HP Storage System. You may then create backup jobs in Data Protector Express that use these

virtual libraries as targets for Disk-to-Disk backups of your protected clients and servers. See “Using

the Create a Virtual Library Wizard” (page 17) for more information.

NOTE: When manually creating or modifying backup jobs that were not created by ASM, do

not use the Data Protector Express ASMbackup account. It is recommended that you create other

Data Protector Express user accounts as needed.
