Logging in to the Zmanda Management Console
The ZMC is web-based, and can be accessed from any machine on the network. Internet Explorer 9 or later or FireFox or Chrome is the recommended browser.
To access ZMC, open any web browser and point it to the ZMC server. For example. if the backup server is ZMCbackupserver.company.com, and you have specified port 1234 for web services during the ZRM Enterprise installation process, use the following URL:
https://ZMCbackupserver.company.com:1234
By default, the ZMC web server uses port 443.
If you are running Amanda Enterprise and ZRM Enterprise products on the same server, you will have to use port number configured during Amanda Enterprise installation to access both Amanda Management console and ZRM Management console.
