If you&#8217;re in charge of backups within your environment, you shouldn&#8217;t need to spend an hour reviewing backup completion reports each morning. <em>That&#8217;s<\/em> what Data Protection Central is for. It&#8217;s not there for your end-users, or your manager, it&#8217;s there for <em>you<\/em>, as the data protection administrator. <strong>It&#8217;s about saving you time, every day<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"669\" src=\"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/DPC19_1-1024x669.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8121\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/DPC19_1-1024x669.png 1024w, https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/DPC19_1-300x196.png 300w, https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/DPC19_1-768x502.png 768w, https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/DPC19_1-306x200.png 306w, https:\/\/nsrd.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/DPC19_1.png 1681w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>DPC Main Dashboard<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>DPC isn&#8217;t a big, juggernaut of an interface. If you don&#8217;t have any changes to make in your data protection environment, you should be able to log in, see 100% success on backups and replication, then get on with your day. But if something <em>has<\/em> failed overnight, you should also be able to drill in, issue restarts, jump into administrative interfaces if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DPC is <strong>free<\/strong>. If you&#8217;re running NetWorker, Avamar, Data Domain, PowerProtect Data manager, or any combination thereof within your environment, you can download and install DPC. There&#8217;s no licensing to fuss with, you just install DPC and start attaching your servers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And that&#8217;s what I want to show you in these videos. Now here&#8217;s the thing: they&#8217;re all simple and short videos! What you should see from these is that if you&#8217;ve got <em>half an hour to spare<\/em>, you could get DPC up and running in your environment!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Deploying Data Protection Central<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_96778\"  width=\"688\" height=\"516\"  data-origwidth=\"688\" data-origheight=\"516\"  data-relstop=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qmNqSpwvpfQ?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen;
