The Pegasus2 R2+ unit ships ready to use without configuration or set-up. However it is a good
idea to install the PROMISE Utility software even if you do not plan to make any changes to device
configuration. The utility is useful for monitoring the system and getting firmware updates.
The utility is necessary if you plan to change the default RAID configuration (Pegasus2 is shipped with
a RAID 0) or if you will swap out any of the hard disks shipped with the device.
The software utility installation package is located on the Pegasus2. Follow the instructions below to
install the utility.
To install the Pegasus2 Software Utility:
1. Double-click on the Pegasus2 icon on your desktop to view the device contents.
See example to right.
2.
Find the file “R_PROMISE_Utility.dmg” and double-click on it to mount the virtual drive containing
the installation software package.*
3.
Double-click on the PROMISE_Utility.pkg file to begin the software installation.*
*
The version number of the .dmg file and .pkg file will change as it is updated. The version number used
in this example is just for the purpose of illustration.
