A DS-Client account must be created on the DS-System before your customer can use the DS-Client software to back up their data. Once you create a DS-Client account, send the DS-Client account number to your customer in order for them to register their DS-Client installation. For more information, see: “Exporting DS-Client registration information”.

The initial default group of 99,999 DS-Client accounts can be identified by the prefix “DSC” and unique system ID, which contains 4 alphanumeric characters followed by a sequentially generated DS-Client number (for example, from DSCxxxx00001 to DSCxxxx99999).

In addition to the default group of 99,999 DS-Client accounts, the DS-System can support another 100 groups of 99,999 DS-Client accounts. Additional groups of 99,999 DS-Client accounts can be identified by the prefix “D00”, “D01”, and so on (for example: D00xxxx00001, D01xxxx00001, etc.).
