Managing Failed Backups

NOTE

You can enable Wake ONLAN support for computers equipped with a

 

Wake ONLAN-compatible LAN interface, such as the HP

 

NightDIRECTOR series. The Wake ONLAN (WOL) option is available in

 

the BIOS setup.

 

When you install a Disk Agent on a Windows client and add it to a cell,

 

 

the client’s Mac address is automatically discovered. You can also

 

manually change the Mac address in the same section where you enable

 

the Wake ONLAN (WOL) option, as shown below.

 

Use the following steps to enable Wake ONLAN support for the Windows

 

client:

 

1.

In the Data Protector Manager, switch to the Clients context.

 

2.

In the Scoping Pane, right-click the client whose WOL option you

 

 

want to enable, and then click Properties.

 

3.

Click the Advanced tab.

 

4.

Under the Magic Packet section, select the Enable Magic Packet

 

 

check box, and then click Apply.
