Registering with the Spectrum Protect server

Before backing up to and recovering from an IBM® Spectrum Protect server, you must have a Spectrum Protect registered node name and a password. The process of setting up a node name and password is called registration.

After the IBM Informix® Interface for Spectrum Protect node is registered with a Spectrum Protect server, you can begin using the IBM Informix Interface for Spectrum Protect to back up and restore your IBM Informix storage spaces and logical logs. If your workstation has a node name assigned to the Spectrum Protect backup-archive client, you should have a different node name for IBM Informix Interface for Spectrum Protect. For information about performing the registration process, see the IBM Spectrum Protect Backup-Archive Client Installation and User's Guide.
