First step is to add the backup servers involved in migration to Tranzman appliance. This allows Tranzman to generate agent package.
The Dashboard enables you to check and monitor the TZM Appliance resources, migration state , service status , progress and state of Environments.  
+
To add the agent, click on <b>+</b> from <b>Environments</b> section.
 +
Provide the server IP address and platform. (Specify the correct platform to build the agent package)
 +
Click on <b>Commit</b> to add the server to Tranzman.
