5 Using the Recovery Manager GUI
Overview of the Recovery Manager GUI
HP 3PAR Recovery Manager Software for SQL Server provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI)
for managing SQL servers.
The Recovery Manager GUI enables you to create, remove, mount, unmount, back up, and restore
a virtual copy of an individual database or an entire instance (i.e., all databases within an instance).
In addition, the Recovery Manager GUI enables you to configure automatic email notifications,
schedule automatic creation and backup of virtual copies, view event messages, and sync the
backup repository.
The Recovery Manager GUI contains a menu bar, a node tree pane on the left, an informational
pane on the right, and a command log window.
Menu Bar
The menu bar consists of the following menu options:
•
Console - allows you to exit the GUI.
•
Actions - provides access to virtual copy functionality, includes create, email notification,
mount, policies, register, remove, rescan, restore, refresh, remote copy, and unmount.
•
Scheduled Tasks - provides access to the Task Manager.
•
About - allows you to access event message descriptions and version information.
Node Tree Pane
After you register the SQL server, the node tree pane displays the SQL server’s instances, databases,
virtual copies, and backup records as a nested tree. Servers configured in a non-cluster environment
are represented by blue icons; servers configured in a cluster environment are represented by
orange icons. For more information about registering SQL servers, see
“Registering the Server”
(page 26) .
Informational Pane
When a tree node is selected, the informational pane displays detailed information about the node.
If the contents exceed the width of the pane, a scroll bar appears at the bottom of the pane. When
viewing information, you have the option of sorting the content by clicking on the applicable table
headings.
