1. Backup Agent Plug-in Installation
Procedure overview
1. Perform the plug-in installation by choosing one of two possible deployment m ethods:
- Perform the installation provided by the integrator. See "Plug-in installation provided by the integrator", page 2 .
- Perform the installation from USB media. See "Plug-in installation from US B media", page 2 .
2. Perform the “Backup Agent” setting. See "Setting of “Bac kup Agent” service", page 3 .
3. Launch the first b ackup.
It is possible that the plug-in "Backup Agent" is distributed in the same package as the TMS application
(Upgrade 5.6.3 and higher). In this case, the step 1 shouldn’t be performed. You must directly perform the
parameters setting and the initial backu p (step 2 and 3).
Particular case of the Update
It is possible to install the plug-in on a server where an earlier version of "Backup A gent" has already been deployed . In this case,
the previous configuration is kept in place. It is not necessary to perform the configuration steps but it is recommended to launch
the manual bac kups (step 3).
