Internet Browser; Before You Start - Promise Technology VTRAK 15200 User Manual

Internet Browser

Typically an Internet browser comes with your operating system. WebPAM PRO
does not include a browser. For computers that will remotely monitor and
manage the RAID, the Internet Browser is the only software required.
Your Internet Browser provides the means for you to monitor and configure your
Promise RAID products using WebPAM PRO. You can use the most recent
versions of either Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator.

Before you start...

1. Obtain the IP addresses of these devices:
• The PC or server where you plan to install WebPAM PRO
• The Management Port(s) of the VTrak(s) you plan to monitor
2. If you currently have either of these on your computer:
• Promise Array Manager (Windows PAM)
• An earlier version of WebPAM
Completely remove them before installing WebPAM PRO. Failure to do so
could result in compatibility problems. For uninstall instructions, see
page 33.
3. If you are planning to use other applications that rely on JRE or JDK, always
install them first before you install WebPAM PRO. WebPAM PRO will use
the existing JRE rather than installing a second one.
WebPAM PRO will install JRE 1.4 on your system unless you already have
JRE or JDK versions 1.3.0 or 1.4.
