What does "Test Connection" do?

Postby Belinda Frick » Thu Nov 18, 2010 10:36 am

If successfull, it will display:

Results from testing archive connection

Code: Select all
Checking backup type ... hard drive only
Mounting archive drive(s) ... OK
/dev/hda1 on /opt/amethyst/backup/hdd type vfat(rw)
Writing to hard drive ... OK
Unmounting archive driv(s)... OK

If unsucessfull, it will display the error similar to the critical e-mails that is sent.

If you do not have a display similar to the above (archive to local drive) then you need
to investigate and resolve the problem displayed.

Check if the drive is on
Check that the drive is accessible on a Windows PC. (it must be a vFAT partion not a NTFS)
