Viewing information about the HYCU R-Cloud Hybrid Cloud Edition environment

R‑Cloud allows you to collect and display data from your HYCU R-Cloud Hybrid Cloud Edition (HYCU) data protection environment. Data is displayed in the dashboard pane, providing you with an at-a-glance overview of your HYCU data protection environment.

To view data from the HYCU environment, switch to the protection set that is automatically associated with a HYCU backup controller after you enable your HYCU account to forward data to R‑Cloud.

Prerequisites

  • Before you can start viewing data protection information from HYCU backup controllers, you must add your HYCU account to HYCU and enable the option for publishing to HYCU R‑Cloud. For instructions, see HYCU Help.

  • Each HYCU backup controller within the same HYCU account must have a unique name.

Considerations

  • For each HYCU backup controller, a single protection set is created. The name of the created protection set is hycu-hce-<ControllerName>-protection-set, where <ControllerName> is the name of the HYCU backup controller.

  • Data from the HYCU backup controller is refreshed every hour and for every backup and restore event.

  • If the HYCU backup controller UUID changes, but the host name remains the same, the existing protection set that represents the HYCU backup controller must be deleted. This case is common after restoring the HYCU backup controller.

Procedure

  1. On the toolbar, click next to the name of the currently selected protection set. From the list of recently selected protection sets, select the protection set that is associated with the HYCU backup controller for which you want to view data protection information.

    2. If the preferred protection set is not on the list, click More to see all available protection sets, select the preferred protection set, and then click Confirm.

  2. In the navigation pane, click Dashboard Dashboard. For more information on the available widgets, see Using the R‑Cloud dashboard.
