Testing your external backup and restore
To make sure you have entered the correct information for your FTP server, you
can test the link. You can also test the external backup to tape (if a tape drive is
configured).
For tape backup/restore, Network Discovery checks:
whether a tape drive can be found
whether a tape is in the drive
For FTP backup/restore, Network Discovery checks:
the existence of the device specified
whether the username and password work for the device
the port specified for the device
read/write ability for the device
For appliance restore, Network Discovery checks:
the connection to the second Peregrine appliance
that the second Peregrine appliance can provide data
that the data on the second Peregrine appliance is compatible with the
active appliance
