(Optional) Connect data backup equipment and pager hardware

Connecting data backup equipment is optional. Connecting pager hardware is also optional.

If you choose to connect an external modem for paging or a tape drive for data backup, you should do so now. For more information on paging, see the Network Discovery User Guide. For more information on backing up and restoring data, see Backup and Restore on page 129.

For tape drive requirements, see Appendix C, Extra Hardware on page 157.

Installing data backup equipment and pager hardware are the responsibility of the customer. If you have any problems, contact Peregrine Systems Customer Support.

Note: You can add a tape drive later, after Network Discovery is up and running. You will not have to restart the Peregrine appliance. However, after Network Discovery has been running, if you unplug the tape drive and plug it in again, the tape drive may lock. To unlock it, you must restart the Peregrine appliance.

Note: It is also possible to back up data without a tape drive by using an FTP server instead.

(Optional) Connect the Peregrine appliance to a telephone line

Connect the Peregrine appliance to a telephone line, if you have chosen a telephone and modem as your means of receiving customer support. (For other options, see Choose how to receive Peregrine Systems Customer Support on page 27).
