BRU Server Agent Configuration
The bruAPP Backup Appliance ships with the BRU Server Agent software pre-installed and ready to be
configured. If you want to backup the bruAPP system, including the BRU Server Environment, the
Agent must be configured before you can run backups, just like any other BRU Server Agent system.
When you authenticate the BRU Server Agent to the BRU Server Server (the bruAPP itself), it will
occupy a client license “seat”. Therefore, if your bruAPP ships with 25 clients, after authenticating the
BRU Server Agent to the BRU Server Server you will have 24 remaining clients available for backup.
Tip
: When you authenticate the BRU Server Agent running on the bruAPP to the BRU Server Server
running on the bruAPP, it is suggested that you use the name “localhost” when prompted for the name
of the BRU Server system.
Alternatively, you can use the IP address of 127.0.0.1.
BRU Server Daemon Restart
In the event that the BRU Server Server daemon needs to be restarted on the bruAPP, under the BRU
Server Main Menu the “Restart” option will perform a BRU Server Server daemon restart.
Warning
When restarting the BRU Server Server daemon, any backup or restore operations
that are running will be terminated. Once terminated, the backup/restore operation
cannot resume from where it left off. The backup/restore operation must be started
over from the beginning.
BRU Server License & Version Information
For support and informational purposes, the “View Details” option of the BRU Server Main Menu will
display the currently set BRU Server License information and the current BRU Server version & build
information. See figure 8.4.
This information may be requested by TOLIS Group Technical Support in the event that you need
technical assistance with your bruAPP.
