Connecting to the network at LAN port 1 and setting failover at LAN port 1
Connecting to the network at LAN port 1 and setting failover at LAN port 2
Note:
If both LAN ports 1 and 2 are connected as shown in the fi gure above, then the backup TeraStation will not take
over operation from the main TeraStation even if the cable connected to LAN port 1 of the main TeraStation is
disconnected.
Using with UPS:
Once failover is confi gured, you will not be able to set up a UPS link for the backup TeraStation. So, confi gure your UPS
before confi guring failover. UPS recovery can be confi gured for both the main TeraStation and the backup TeraStation.
However, the UPS settings of the main TeraStation are not copied to the backup TeraStation. UPS settings for both Ter-
aStations should be confi gured before confi guring failover.
In the Web Admin interface of the backup TeraStation, if [Sync with the UPS connected to another TeraStation on the
same network. ] is selected so that operation is linked to the main TeraStation, then if the main TeraStation shuts down,
the backup TeraStation will no longer be able to detect if there was a power outage. In this case, connect the UPS com-
munication cable from the main TeraStation to the backup TeraStation and reconfi gure the UPS link settings.
Use the same model and same capacity TeraStation for the main TeraStation and back-
up TeraStation.
If the capacity of the main TeraStation is larger than that of the backup TeraStation, an error occurs, and fi les cannot be
copied to the backup TeraStation. The message "Replication I33 ReplicateFailure" is displayed on the LCD panel of the
main TeraStation. If this happens, disable failover in the Web Admin interface of the main TeraStation.
All data in the TeraStation designated as the backup TeraStation will be erased.
Before confi guring failover, move any needed data to another hard drive or storage device. Also, during confi guration of
failover, the backup TeraStation's settings cannot be changed.
