Installation - Getting Started
•
If a connection test facility is provided within the
setup menus, use it and wait for a positive result.
•
From the NAS drive setup menus, select the desired
backup format and schedule. We recommend
selecting a weekly, time-stamped, differential
backup. The initial backup may take a considerable
time to complete.
Note:
The backup process may reduce UnitiServe response
speed while it is underway. It is best to schedule backups
to run at times when the UnitiServe is unlikely to be in use.
Note:
A differential backup only records changes that
have occurred since the last backup.
Note:
If a separate NAS drive is used for rip storage in
addition to the UnitiServe internal storage, this must itself
be backed-up. The same NAS drive should not be used for
both primary rip storage and backup.
Note:
As well as using a NAS drive for backup it is also
possible to use an automatic backup application running
on a network connected computer. This option however
requires sufficient hard disk space always to be available
on the computer, and that the computer is left running
permanently to ensure that scheduled backups are not
missed.
Note:
UnitiServe must be switched on for automated
backups to take place.
