Add Data Center / Server
- Gia Jgarkava
You can add Data Center or Server instance to backup schemas from from there and also restore schemas into the DC/Server instance.
To enable this feature, DC/Server app, Insight Assets Cloud Migration Assistant, should be installed on the source DC/Server instance with internet access. If you need to grant network access only to Insighit Assets Backup and Migration Cloud app, please contact us.
After the Insight Assets Cloud Migration Assistant is installed on the source DC/Server instance, you can add DC/Server instance for syncing the schemas by clicking “Add new“ button in the Cloud app:
