Install the Client Plug-in
You must install the client plug-in before you can manage VMware Data Recovery.
Prerequisites
Before you can install the Data Recovery plug-in, you must have vCenter Server running in your environment,
and you must install the vSphere Client, which you can download from any vCenter Server. The Data Recovery
plug-in connects to the backup appliance using port 22024. If there is a firewall between the client and the
backup appliance, port 22024 must be open before Data Recovery can be managed with the vSphere Client.
Procedure
1 Run the plug-in installer VMwareDataRecoveryPlugin.msi.
2 Follow the prompts of the installation wizard.
3 Start the vSphere Client, and log in to a vCenter Server.
4 Select Plugins > Manage Plugins and make sure that the Data Recovery plug-in is enabled.
You can now use the client plug-in to manage Data Recovery. If the Data Recovery is not registered in the
vSphere Client, restart the client.
What to do next
You may now want to complete the task “Install the Backup Appliance,” on page 12.
Install the Backup Appliance
You must install the backup appliance so Data Recovery can complete backup tasks. You use the vSphere
Client to deploy the backup appliance.

Procedure
1 From the vSphere Client, select File > Deploy OVF Template.
2 Select Deploy from file, and then browse to VmwareDataRecovery.ovf and select it.
3 Review the OVF file details.
4 Review the End User License Agreement. If you agree to the terms, accept them.
If you do not accept the terms, you cannot complete the process.
5 Select a location for the backup appliance in the vSphere inventory.
You can optionally rename the backup appliance.
6 Select the host or cluster to which the backup appliance is to be deployed.
7 Select a datastore to store the virtual machine files.
8 Review the deployment settings and click Finish.
The backup appliance is now deployed into your environment.
