Legacy backup tool
To clone all media files from the media server to another Picturall media server without continuous
synchronization, the legacy backup tool can be used.
The following example shows how to back from a Server A to a Server B.
1.
On the Web configurator of the Picturall media server to use as the source of the synchronization,
set the system role to
Server
.
2.
Make sure the two servers have the same software version (latest if possible).
3.
Make sure the two servers have Picturall Commander installed in same version (latest if possible).
4.
Create a show and transfer some media files on Server A.
5.
Make sure that Server B is up and running.
6.
On a web browser, enter the IP address of Server A in the address bar.
7.
Go to
Tools
/
Backup
.
8.
Select Server B in the dropdown list or enter the IP address of server B then click
Save
.
Server A sends all media files and shows to Server B (configuration settings are not duplicated and
existing media files on server B are not deleted).
9.
After the transfer is complete, restart Server B and make sure that it has the same shows and media
data as Server A.
Note
