ZMC is Web based

• ZMC can be accessed from any machine on the network.
• Users don't need to remember detailed command line instructions.
• To access ZMC, open the browser and point it to the Amanda server, e.g. if the backup server is amandabackupserver.company.com, and a user has specified port 1234 for the web server during the installation process, use the following URL:

    http://amandabackupserver.company.com:1234/

• By default, the ZMC web server uses port 80 on the Amanda server.

Initial User name and Password

Once ZMC is downloaded and installed it will allow the user to log in with the default User name "admin" and password "admin”.

• It is recommended that users change the Password as soon as possible.

After entering the User Name and Password (Area 1 above), please click the Login Button to proceed further.
