Use this screen to add or remove Arkeia backup clients. Remember, before you add a computer as an Arkeia client, it must have the Arkeia client software installed on it and running.
Click on Add a new client
and fill in the fields
presented.
A backup server cannot be assigned a Client name
Click on Add client
to make this computer a client of
the Arkeia backup server. Arkeia will add the computer to the list of
clients. Click on the client name in this list to see the properties and
system information retrieved by the backup server.
Please note that the Client name and the connection method can be changed from the main Network info tab after the client has been added.
The Advanced tab in the main screen displays system information about the client machines and makes it possible to change some advanced agent options.
By default, an Arkeia agent listens on all local IP addresses for incoming connections. It is possible through the Advanced tab to make the Arkeia agent listen on only one specific local IP address. Please note that the main Arkeia agent daemon must be restarted to apply such a configuration. This can be done by clicking the Restart the main arkeia daemon action menu.
It is also possible to change the Arkeia agent listening TCP port, which is by default 617. Unless you know exactly what you are doing, you should avoid changing this default listening port. Please note that the agent must be restarted after its listening TCP port has been changed.
Highlight the client computer in the list of clients, then click on Remove...
in the action menu.
The computer is removed from this backup server's client list. It can now be added as a new client to a different Arkeia backup server or replaced on this server, provided the Arkeia client software has not been deleted from it.
