Installation
Message Server
The Message Server installs onto the RAID PC if your installation does not
involve a network.
If you want run PAM over a network, install the Message Server on one of
your networked computers including a file server, a networked PC or the
RAID PC.
Only one installation of the Message Server is required for PAM to work
over a network. You may install Message Server on more than one network
PC or file server, but PAM's network configuration will only use one of
them, thus any additional installations are not necessary.
Do not install the Message Server on any PC that may be disconnected
from the network, such as a laptop or a computer that connects via the
Internet. Not only will a disconnect cause PAM to fail, but reconnecting
again may involve time-consuming network configuration.
Network configuration is discussed later in this chapter.
Note: Refer to Table 2-2 for acceptable operating systems.
Message Agent
The Message Agent installs on the RAID PC, whether your RAID is
networked or not. In order for PAM to monitor and manage a RAID, it must
have Message Agent installed.
If you have more than one PAM-compatible RAID PC on your network, you
may install a copy of Message Agent on all of them.
Note: Refer to Table 2-2 for acceptable operating systems.
