You must assign a host name for the appliance. It is recommended that you change the host name
before starting backups. By default, the host name is the system name that the operating system assigns.
NOTE: If you plan to change the host name, it is recommended that you change the host name at
this stage. Changing the host name after completing the AppAssure Appliance Configuration
wizard requires you to perform several steps.
To configure the host name and domain settings:
1. On the Configure host name and domain setting page, in New host name text box enter an
appropriate host name.
2. If you do not want to connect your appliance to a domain, select No in Do you want this appliance
to join a domain?
NOTE: If your DL1000 is installed with Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Foundation edition, the
option to join a domain will be disabled.
By default, Yes is selected.
3. If you want to connect your appliance to a domain, enter the following details:
• Domain name
• Domain user name
NOTE: The domain user must have local administrative rights.
• Domain user password
4. Click Next.
NOTE: Changing the host name or the domain requires restarting the machine. After restarting,
the AppAssure Appliance Configuration wizard is launched automatically. If the appliance is
connected to a domain, after restarting the machine, you must log in as a domain user with
administrative privileges on the appliance.
