2 Introduction
This guide helps you protect the valuable data stored on your HP NetServer using
your Stac Replica backup software.
The guide tells you how to install, set up, and use the software. It also provides
instructions for caring for your HP SureStore tape drive and tells you where to
find information on performing tape diagnostics.
The Replica Solution for Server Backup
With Stac Replica for HP SureStore Tape, you get a powerful backup program
that makes file backup as easy as pressing a button.
Designed for ease-of-use, Replica provides desktop shortcuts that allow you to
quickly configure automatic daily backups, perform immediate backups, and
restore files and folders from your backup tape--without special training or
expertise.
The HP SureStore Tape edition of Replica includes a Configuration Wizard that
walks you through the process of setting up a default configuration that
automatically backs up designated volumes at the same time, every day. All you
have to do is make sure that a tape cartridge is inserted in the server’s HP
SureS tore tap e d rive.
Replica also provides a desktop shortcut for performing one-step, unscheduled
backups any time you wish. Opening the shortcut starts an immediate backup of
the same vol umes you designated for backup with the Configuration Wizard.
Once the server data is backed up, it is just as easy to restore lost or damaged
files by mounting the appropriate backup tape as a volume that your server
recognizes as a removable drive. After the tape is mounted, you can use the
familiar Windows Explorer, or File Manager to copy the files to the desired
location.
What Version of Software D o I Hav e?
Stac Replica for HP SureStore Tape con tains device drivers for both the T20 and
T4 tape devices. It is available in two editions:
• The CD-ROM for product number C4396A is titled "HP SureStore Tape,
Backup & Disaster Recovery, Replica Single Server for HP SureStore
Tape." This edition provides a complete disaster recovery feature.

Chapter 2 Introduction
• The CD-ROM for pr oduct number C4394A is titled "HP SureStore Tape

Determini ng the V ersion of R eplica to In stall
Your HP SureStore CD contains two versions of Stac Replica for NetWare 4.2.
One version should be used on systems tha t a re NWPA-based and t he other
version sh oul d be used on systems that ar e DDFS-based. Before you attempt to
install Stac Replica on your NetWare 4.2 system you must determine which
version of Stac Replica you should install. If you install the wr ong version,
Replica will not be able to detect the tape device and you will have to de-install
the installed version and then install the correct version.
You can deter mine wheth er your system is NWPA-based or DDFS-based by
examining the file extension for your system’s disk device driver file. To do this,
view NetWare’s STARTUP.NCF file and examine the LOAD statements that are
used to load the disk device driver. If the extension for the disk device driver file
is ".DSK" your system is a DDFS-based system. If the ext ension for the di sk
device driver file is ".HAM", your system is a NWPA-based system.
To view th e S TARTUP.NCF file, from the NetWare cons ol e screen enter LOA D
INSTALL. The system will display the "Installation Option s" screen. At the
"Installation Options" screen, highlight the "NCF file options" line and press
ENTER. At the "Available NCF Files Options" screen, highlight the "Edit
STARTUP. NC F fi le" line and p ress ENT ER. Accept t he defaul t path displayed in
the "Spec ify a server boot path …" window. The contents of the STARTUP.NCF
file should now be displayed.
10
Chapter 3 Installing Replica
If you used the Installation Assistant feat u re of the HP NetServer Navigat or C D
to install NetWare 4.2, your STARTUP.NCF file will pr obably contain a load
statement that reads "LOAD AIC78XX.DSK …" which means that your system
is DDFS-based, or "LOAD AHA2940.HAM …" which means that your system is
NWPA-based. If you don't see one of these LOAD statements, look for a LOAD
statement wh ere the file name extension for the file is .DSK or .HAM.
Press ESC to close the STARTUP.NCF file window.
Installing Replica for Nov ell NetWare 4.2
There are two options for installing Replica for Novell NetWare 4.2.

Chapter 5 Restoring Files and Folders
Optimizing Replica File Protection
Although Stac Replica for HP SureStore Tape Edition is optimized for backing
up and restoring data files, there are steps you can take to optimize Replica’s file
protection capabilities.
Separate your data files from system files by storing the data files on volumes
other than the drive on which the operating system is installed (typically drive
C). When you separate your files in this way, the tape mount procedure described
earlier in this chapter to restore lost or damaged data files is practically 100%
effective.
Disaster Recovery Feature on the Single Server
Edition
The Single Server Edition of HP Stac Replica includes complete disaster recovery
facilities. If you created the Disaster Recovery disks and replicated the ser ver
entirely, Replica can do a full disaster recovery th at r eturns your server to its state
at the time of the last server backup. For complete instruction s on recovering
from a d isaster, revi ew the cha p ter on Disaster Recovery in the Replica for
SureStore Tape User’s Guide stored on t he HP SureStore Tape CD-ROM.
Recovering a System Volume When You Don’t
Have Disaster Recovery
If you have a ver sion of Replica that does not have the disaster recovery feature,
you can still recover your system files by reinstalling the network operating
system. Use the following instruction s to manually recover a system volume
when you don’t h ave the di s aster recovery feature. Th e p rocedur es for recoveri ng
Windows NT an d NetWa re system volumes are discussed separately.
Manually Recover ing a Win dows NT System V olume
If your Windows NT system volume is lost through disk failure or user error, you
can rebuild the base operating system manually by following the procedure
below.
To manually recover a Windows NT system volume:
1. Boot the HP NetSer ver fr om a DOS disk t hat can recognize th e HP
NetServer’s C D-ROM drive.
38
Chapter 5 Restoring Files and Folders
2. Install the Windows NT operating system from the NOS installation
CD-ROM.
3. Use the Installer utility to restore the original partitions and format disk
volumes.
4. Reconstruct the or igin al server configurations, including hardware setups,
passwords, and profiles.
5. Re-install your applications on the HP NetServer.
6. Re-install Replica software according to the instructions in Chapter 3.
7. Restart the HP NetServer and restore lost or damaged data files by using
the Restore feature described earlier in th is chapter.
Manually Recover ing a NetW are Sy stem Volu me
If your NetWare system volume is lost through disk failure or user error, you can
restore the SYS volume if you’ve backed it up t o ta p e.
To manually recover a NetWare system volume:
1. From the NetWare console, enter :
UNLOAD REPLICA
to unload the Replica NLM.
2. Enter:
LOAD REPLICA -NOCLIENTS
to load Replica in a safe mode.
By loading Replica in this mode, you won’t be able to use Replica, and
network users will be unable to log in to the server until the recovery is
complete.
3. Insert the tape con tain in g th e SYS you want to rest or e, t hen ent er:
REPLICA RECOVER SYS
Replica locates the first SYS volume on t he tape an d a sk s for confirmation
before starting the recovery.
4. Enter YES to begin the recovery.
5. When the volu me is recovered, s hut down server and reboot.

6 Caring For Your Tape Drive
This chapter provides information about caring for your HP SureStor e T20 tape
drive and its cartridge tapes.
Care of t he T ape Driv e
The HP SureStore T20 tape drive is simple to care for. No routine cleaning or
maintenance is required.
CAUTION Do not clean the tape drive’s read-write head. Do not degauss
or demagnetize the tape drive’s read-write head. This will
damage the tape drive.
Choosing Tapes for Your T ape Drive
Your HP SureStore T20 tape drive is compatible with several types of tape
cartridges:
• High-capacity Travan 5 (TR-5) 20 GB mini-cartridge (QIC-3220 format),
one of which is supplied with the tape drive. This is the normal tape
cartridge you should use for your backup data.
• HP Colorado 5 GB mini-cartridges, which have a lower capacity than
TR-5 cartridges.
• TR-4 mini-cartridges. This is an older tape format that allows your T20 to
maintain compatibility with previously written tapes.
Various br an ds of tape car tridges will work with your tape drive. To ensure the
highest level of performance, HP brand tapes, which have been tested for
compatibility with your drive, are recommended. See the HP NetServer Support
web site for updates to this list.
41
Chapter 6 Caring For Your Tape Drive
Erasing Tapes
The Erase or Format utility provided by most backup application s is the safest
and quickest method of removing data from your tapes.
NOTE Do not erase tapes with bulk erasers. Magnetic bulk erasing
removes the tracking reference points that are placed on the
tape at the factory. Without these points, the tapes cannot be
read by your tape drive.
Inserting and Removing Tape Cartridges
This section provides some basic guidelines for inserting and removin g tape
cartridges.
To insert a tape cartridge into your drive:
1. Hold the tape cartridge with the metal base plate down and the tape
window faci ng the drive.
2. Align the tape cartridge with th e tape drive’s opening and push it firmly
into the drive.
42
After the cartridge is inserted, you will hear the sound of the tape being
wound back and forth. This sound indicates that the tape drive is finding
the beginning of the tape, determining the tape’s length and format, and
position in g th e drive’s read-write head.
Chapter 6 Caring For Your Tape Drive
The back of the cartridge
will be flush with the
recessed bezel.
Figure 6-1. Inser ting the Tape Cartridge
CAUTION Interfering with a tape cartridge during operations can cause
data loss and may make the tape tempor ar ily unrecordable.
During read-write operations (while the operation light on the
front panel is flashin g), do not:
Pull the tape cartridge out of the drive
Bump the tape cartridge
Turn off the power to the computer
If this does happen, you may not be able to read the data
currently written to the tape. In addition, the tape may not be
recordable until it is erased with an Erase utility.
43
Chapter 6 Caring For Your Tape Drive
To remove a tape cartr idge from the drive:
1. Wait until the operation light on the front of your tape drive stops
blinking and your backup software indicates that it is all right to remove
the tape cartridge. Do not remove a tape cartridge during an operation.
See the Cauti on above.
2. Grasp the tape cartridge firmly and pull it straight out of the drive.
Write-Protecting a Tape Cartridge
If you write-protect a tape cartridge, the tape dr ive can only read data from the
tape, not wr ite to it. Use this setting to protect data on the tape cartridge from
being erased or overwr itten, for example, wh en you are restoring files from tape.
• To write-protect a cartridge, slide the wr ite-protect tab on the cartridge to
the right.
• To remove write-protection from a cartridge, slide the write-protect tab to
the left.
See Figure 6-2 to see how the write-protect tabs appear on the cartridge.

Chapter 6 Caring For Your Tape Drive
Caring for Your Tape Cartridges
Your data is valuable. Treat car tridges with respect so that they provide you with
the security you need. Follow these guidelines for han dling tape cartridges:
•
Do not open the tape door unn ecessarily. This may expose the tape to
contamination or damage.
•
Do not touch the tape or leader. Dust and natural skin oils can affect tape
performance.
Operating Conditions
Tape cartridges should be used in an environment within the same operational
ranges as an HP NetServer:
Temperature:
Operating 5º C to 45º C
Non-operating -40º C to 65º C
Humidity
Operating Relative humidity of 20% to 80% (non-condensing)
Non-operating Relative humidity of 5% to 95% (non-condensing)
NOTE If a cartridge has been exposed to conditions outside its
operating range, you should acclimatize the cartridge by
leaving it in the operating environment for 8 hours befor e
using it.
Storin g Tape Cartri dges
Tape cartridges should be stored safely to ensure that they perform their desired
role: protecting your data.
• D o not pla ce tape cartri d ges near sources of electroma g netic i nterference,
such as under a telephone, or near computer monitors, motors, video, or
X-ray equipment.
• Keep cartridges out of direct sunlight and away from heaters.
45
Chapter 6 Caring For Your Tape Drive
• Store cartridges in their plastic cases in an environment that is free
from dust.
