Installing the Software on Mac
The Pegasus3 unit ships ready to use without configuration or set-up; however it is a good idea to
install the Pegasus 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 (Pegasus3 is shipped with
a RAID 5) or if you will swap out any of the hard disks shipped with the device.
The software utility installation package is located on the Pegasus3. Follow the instructions below to
install the utility.
To install the Pegasus3 Software Utility:
1.
Double-click on the Pegasus3 icon on your desktop to view the device contents.
See example to right.
2.
Find the file “R_PROMISE_Utility_ 40000000x.dmg” and double-click on it to mount the virtual
drive containing the installation software package.*
3.
Double-click on the PROMISE_Utility_ 40000000x.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.
