The more practical way to manage the software is installing again the software in management only mode on a Windows or Linux desktop: when installing you will be asked to specify the hostname/ip address of the backup server you want to manage; do not install services on your workstation: is not needed. When installation has completed you can launch your console to connect to YB/DPE service running on your SME server.<BR>
