2 Introduction

This guide helps you protect the valuable data stored on your HP NetServer using

your Stac Replica backup software.

The guide tells you how to install, set up, and use the software. It also provides

instructions for caring for your HP SureStore tape drive and tells you where to

find information on performing tape diagnostics.

The Replica Solution for Server Backup

With Stac Replica for HP SureStore Tape, you get a powerful backup program

that makes file backup as easy as pressing a button.

Designed for ease-of-use, Replica provides desktop shortcuts that allow you to

quickly configure automatic daily backups, perform immediate backups, and

restore files and folders from your backup tape--without special training or

expertise.

The HP SureStore Tape edition of Replica includes a Configuration Wizard that

walks you through the process of setting up a default configuration that

automatically backs up designated volumes at the same time, every day. All you

have to do is make sure that a tape cartridge is inserted in the server’s HP

SureStore tape drive.

Replica also provides a desktop shortcut for performing one-step, unscheduled

backups any time you wish. Opening the shortcut starts an immediate backup of

the same volumes you designated for backup with the Configuration Wizard.

Once the server data is backed up, it is just as easy to restore lost or damaged

files by mounting the appropriate backup tape as a volume that your server

recognizes as a removable drive. After the tape is mounted, you can use the

familiar Windows Explorer, or File Manager to copy the files to the desired

location.

What Version of Software Do I Have?

Stac Replica for HP SureStore Tape contains device drivers for both the T20 and

T4 tape devices. It is available in two editions:

•The CD-ROM for product number C4396A is titled "HP SureStore Tape,

Backup & Disaster Recovery, Replica Single Server for HP SureStore

Tape." This edition provides a complete disaster recovery feature.

Chapter 2 Introduction

•The CD-ROM for product number C4394A is titled "HP SureStore Tape

Server/PC Workstation Backup, Replica Backup for HP SureStore Tape,

HP Colorado Backup II." This version of Replica does not have the

disaster recovery feature.

If you have product C4394A, and want to upgrade to the version of Replica that

contains the disaster recovery feature, contact your HP representative and order

HP product number C4396A.

3 Installing Replica

This chapter provides instructions for installing Stac Replica drivers and software

under Windows NT or NetWare. Review the section that applies to the operating

system running on your HP NetServer before starting the Replica installation.

Installing Replica for Windows NT

This section provides instructions for installing Replica and its related files on an

HP NetServer running Windows NT. If you are installing Replica on an HP

NetServer running NetWare, skip to the "Installing Replica for NetWare" section

later in this chapter.

NOTE For best results, always close any applications running on the

HP NetServer before starting the Replica installation.

What You Need

Before you can install Replica and begin backing up server files, you need the

following:

•An HP NetServer running Windows NT Server 3.51, Windows NT

Server 4.0, or Microsoft Small Business Server

•At least 32 MB RAM

•At least 8 MB free disk space on the boot drive, or on the drive that

contains the system folder

•At least one configured HP SureStore T20 tape drive and a blank tape

cartridge (provided with your server)

•A system console connected to the network and running the TCP/IP or

IPX/SPX communications protocol, which allows the Replica service to

communicate with the Windows application

•Administrator privileges for server access

Chapter 3 Installing Replica

Creating a Drivers Diskette

If you don’t have an HP NetServer Windows NT drivers diskette, you may need to

create one before you can install the T20.

NOTE You do not need to create a drivers diskette if you installed

NT 4.0 using HP Installation Assistant. Installation Assistant

automatically copied the T20 device drivers to

C:\HP\DRIVERS\T20. It automatically copied the files

necessary to install the Stac Replica backup software to

C:\I386\$OEM$\STAC.

You can create your drivers diskette using an HP NetServer or a Windows-based

PC.

To create the drivers diskette from an HP NetServer:

1. Boot the HP NetServer from the HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM.

2. Click the NetServer Utilities button; then click Diskette Library.

3. Select your NOS version and follow the on-screen instructions for placing

the drivers on a diskette.

To create the drivers diskette from a Windows-based PC:

1. Boot the PC if you have not already done so.

2. Insert the HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM. The Diskette Library screen

appears.

3. Select your NOS version and follow the on-screen instructions for placing

the drivers on a diskette.

Installing the Replica Drivers and Software

The installation instructions are slightly different for Windows NT 4.0 and

Windows NT 3.51. Please follow the appropriate instructions.

If your HP NetServer is running Windows NT 4.0 or Microsoft BackOffice

Small Business Server:

To add the T20 device driver and install Replica:

1. Log in to the HP NetServer as Administrator.

2. Open the Tape Devices icon in the Control Panel group.
