Machine Registration

What to do in order to register a new machine for use with Axilon

The first time a given machine is used with the Axilon Client, it must be installed and the machine registered. The steps are as follows:

1. Open the Axilon Client installer EXE

2. Once the application installs, it will open automatically

3. Log in when prompted with the seed credentials provided by Axilon or your administrator

   1. You may be asked to reset the password—if you are, do so and save the credentials

   2. Passwords must be more than twelve (12) characters long and contain an uppercase letter, a number, and a special character

4. Open the Current Machine sub-tab of the machines menu on the left.

5. Click the Register button on the upper right side of the screen

6. Enter in a name for the machine

   1. Pick a descriptive name, as this will be displayed for all users viewing machine information

7. Enter a brief description of the machine’s function that is at least 10 characters long

8. Click Register

9. The machine will connect to the Axilon Webserver and install configuration management services automatically

   1. Three (3) services are installed: snapshot, main, and restore. Confirm these services are all running before continuing
