FSA Reporting proxy server requirements

Before you configure a computer as an FSA Reporting proxy server, make sure that it conforms to Enterprise Vault's requirements.

Table: Requirements for FSA Reporting proxy servers lists the requirements for each proxy server type.

Note:

The computer must not be part of a cluster. A clustered server cannot act as an FSA Reporting proxy server.

Table: Requirements for FSA Reporting proxy servers

Proxy server type

Requirement

Enterprise Vault server

  • The Enterprise Vault server must be in the same Enterprise Vault site as the non-Windows file server. It does not need to have the non-Windows file server as an archiving target.

  • For Celerra/VNX, the HTTP server on the Celerra/VNX Data Mover must accept Celerra/VNX FileMover API connections from the Enterprise Vault server.

    This condition will already be true if the Celerra/VNX device is an archiving target of the Enterprise Vault server. Otherwise you need to configure the Celerra/VNX Data Mover.

Windows file server archiving target

  • Both a forward DNS lookup and a reverse DNS lookup must succeed for the file server.

  • The FSA Agent is required. You need not install the FSA Agent in advance. When Enterprise Vault assigns the proxy server it installs the FSA Agent, if the agent is not already present.

    When you install the FSA Agent, the installer adds the Vault Service account to the local Print Operators group on the file server, and configures the other required permissions and privileges for the Vault Service account.

  • For Celerra/VNX, the HTTP server on the Celerra/VNX Data Mover must accept Celerra/VNX FileMover API connections from the server.

Other Windows server on the network

  • The Windows server must be in the same domain as the Enterprise Vault server, or in a child domain, or in a domain with a two-way trust relationship. A workgroup computer cannot act as a proxy server.

  • Both a forward DNS lookup and a reverse DNS lookup must succeed for the server.

  • The Windows computer must not act as an FSA Reporting proxy server for a file server in another site.

  • The FSA Agent is required. You need not install the FSA Agent in advance. When Enterprise Vault assigns the proxy server it installs the FSA Agent, if the agent not already present.

    When you install the FSA Agent, the installer adds the Vault Service account to the local Print Operators group on the Windows server, and configures the other required permissions and privileges for the Vault Service account.

  • For Celerra/VNX, the HTTP server on the Celerra/VNX Data Mover must accept Celerra/VNX FileMover API connections from the server.
