Data Protection for VMware GUI registration keys

Edit online

Depending on the options you select during installation, you can access the Data Protection for VMware GUI by using different methods. Registration keys are created for the Data Protection for VMware GUIs.

The phrase Data Protection for VMware GUI applies to the following GUIs:
  • Data Protection for VMware vSphere GUI accessed in a web browser
  • IBM Storage Protect vSphere Client plug-in in the vSphere Web Client GUI

IBM Storage Protect vSphere Client plug-in registration key is com.ibm.tsm.tdpvmware.IBMDataProtection. This key is registered when you select the Register the vSphere Web Client extension check box during the installation. A single instance of the IBM Storage Protect vSphere Client plug-in is registered per vCenter server.

A registration key is not created for the Data Protection for VMware vSphere GUI that is accessed in a web browser.

To view the registration keys, log in to the VMware Managed Object Browser (MOB). After you log in to the MOB, go to Content→Extension Manager to view the registration keys.
