A.4 Conceptual Foundation
In order for Altos RAIDWatch to function properly, different software modules must be correctly
installed on different servers and stations in a given LAN or WAN. Assuming that a given network
has multiple RAID systems, one RAID connected server will need to be chosen as the main server.
This point is particularly important if Altos RAIDWatch will be operated via web browsers as the
main server will need to be a web server.
The main server will need to have the Primary agent and Secondary agent (if the main server is also
a RAID host), and Notification Processing Center (NPC) if it will be used. The main server will also
need Java Run-time Environment (JRE) installed if it is a Altos RAIDWatch Manager or Event
Monitor site. Subsequent installations at other RAID servers will only need the Secondary agent
installed.
Table A–1 on page 5 provides a guide to what modules need to be installed on which server.
Note
items in the bottom five rows of the table are not included with Altos RAIDWatch and must be
installed or modified by system users:
