Understanding the Node Management Screen

Node Management is an entry component of CA ARCserve Central Applications. You can access it from the Navigation bar on the left panel of the CA ARCserve Central Protection Manager application.

Node Management contains four categories to work from on the screen:

Node--Lets you manage specific nodes. For more information about managing nodes, see What You Can Do With Nodes.
Node Group--Lets you manage specific node groups. For more information, see What You Can Do With Node Groups.
Actions--Lets you Back up data, Restore data, and Deploy data.
Filter--Lets you use filters to display nodes in a group with a particular application installed. For more information, see Filter Node Groups.
