Notes:7. After the Cross-Platform primary server has fully initialized the shared tapelibrary (the slot information is displayed in the Device Manager), you can start BrightStorEnterprise Backup on the remaining UNIX distributed servers and the Windows primaryserver, one at a time.8. After BrightStor Enterprise Backup is started on the Windows primary server,you can start BrightStor Enterprise Backup on the Windows distributed servers.• BrightStor Enterprise Backup Cross-Platform Manager cannot beinstalled on the same Windows machine that has BrightStorARCserve Backup Version 9 Cross-Platform Manager installed.For example, if you use Windows server “A” to installBrightStor ARCserve Backup Version 9 (including SAN Optionand Cross-Platform Manager), instead of using the same server“A” to install BrightStor Enterprise Backup, Tape Library andSAN Option, you need to find another server to install theseapplications.• Make sure there is no activity taking place on the shared tapelibrary before starting a UNIX distributed or Windows primaryserver.• Make sure all of the UNIX distributed servers are added andassigned as Cross-Platform UNIX distributed servers in theWindows SAN Option Configuration Utility.• If “camediad” is ever restarted on the UNIX primary server,“camediad” on ALL distributed UNIX servers must be restarted.Also, the Tape Engine on the primary Windows server anddistributed Windows server(s) must be restarted as well.• All UNIX and Windows servers must have BrightStor EnterpriseBackup, Tape Library Option, and the SAN Option installed.
General Information for Windows NT/2000/2003• If a shared device is participating in a RAID configuration,it will be automatically removed from that configurationwhen it is configured as a Cross-Platform device. Anylocal devices participating in RAID configurations willremain intact.• If a shared Tape Library is configured as a virtual library,this configuration needs to be removed before configuringthe library in a Cross-Platform SAN. Please refer to theBrightStor Enterprise Backup Tape Library Option ReleaseNotes for virtual library support.• Only one active Windows primary server can be physicallyattached to the same SAN. In the event that a primaryWindows server is no longer available, a distributed servercan be removed from its primary Windows server by rightclicking on the distributed Windows server and selectingthe option Force to Remove.• Please be sure to run \Device Configuration\TLO Setup toconfigure your shared tape library before you assign thenew primary through the SAN Configuration Utility.
