Self-Hosted Online Server Setup
Step 1: Download and unzip the setup package
Run the
wget
command shared with you by our deployment team to download the setup package.

Step 2: Run the setup.sh
installer
setup.sh
installerYou will be prompted to choose an available network interface. The Zmanda Pro Server will listen on the IPv4 address of the selected Network interface.

E.g. In the above example, Option 1 was selected. This binds the Zmanda Pro Server to listen on the address 192.168.80.223
As long as a DNS entry has been added, the server interface will be accessible at backup.zmanda.com

Step 3: Activate your Zmanda Pro Server
In Step 1, a Demo-online_license_activator.run
file was packaged with the Zmanda Pro Server Setup.
In an online self-hosted deployment, the Zmanda Pro Licensing Server is accessed via the host's public IP. The host must be able to make HTTPS requests to the public internet to validate your license plan and billing cycle.
The License Activator requires an unlock key, which serves as an authentication factor to ensure that the activation is run by an administrator with the appropriate privileges.
The unlock password will be in the unlock.pass
file that is present in your setup.zip package
NOTE: Please keep a copy of the unlock password in a secure password vault. This password will be used for all License_Activator
operations including server upgrades. This will also be the password for your first login.

You have successfully set up your Zmanda Pro Server instance. You can now access the dashboard in your browser to manage backup and restore operations.
Your first login credentials will be
Username: admin
Password: the unlock key sent with the
License Activator
You are required to change the admin password on your first login

NOTE: If you're using the self-signed certificates included in the Zmanda Pro setup, your browser will display a "Not Secure" warning. To resolve this, you need to install the self-signed CA certificate on both your client devices and the device you're using to access the browser.
