1. TO PRINT THIS FILE
=====================

Determine the port your printer is connected to (LPT1: will be
used for this example).  Then type:

COPY README.TXT LPT1:

and press <<Enter>>.  This file will be printed on your printer
(the README file is copied to your installation directory by the
INSTALL program).

NOTE: This procedure will not work with a PostScript printer. One
solution is to bring README.TXT into your word processor which
has the PostScript driver and print it from there.

2. UPGRADES
===========

2.1 Palindrome Files from Previous Versions
-------------------------------------------
Upon successfully upgrading to version 3.0, you may delete most
of your Palindrome *.EXE (from your installation directory) and
*.NLM files (SYS:\SYSTEM) left from your original installation.
These files generally have the prefix of TNA or PBD. 

     NOTE:     Do not delete the file TNAXPAND. This file is
               copied off your distribution diskettes during
               installation of 3.0.

You should also unload any NLMs from your server console from
previous Network Archivist or Backup Director installations.

2.2 Auto Command
----------------
During the upgrade process, Network Archivist will translate
existing Auto Command to the default command of PNABACK /A /Q. 
If you wish to have a different command run during unattended
operations, you will want to change this command from the PNACFG
/O program.

2.3 Tape Compatibility
----------------------
File sessions written with 3.0 are not backwards compatible with
earlier versions of Palindrome Network Archivist or Palindrome
Backup Director. 
 
Older tapes can continue to be used with version 3.0 but, file
sessions written to tape by 3.0 will not be readable by earlier
versions of either product.

2.4 Upgrades from an Evaluation
-------------------------------
Network Archivist Evaluation software provides unlimited
protection capacity and AutoLoader Software. When upgrading to a
live version of Network Archivist from an Evaluation copy, your
protection capacity is reset to 2GB and AutoLoader support is
turned off.  Expansion Capacity software and AutoLoader Software
must be purchased separately.

2.5 AutoLoader Support
----------------------
If you currently own AutoLoader Software, you must upgrade to
version 3.0 of the AutoLoader Software to use with Network
Archivist 3.0. Call Palindrome's Sales Department to receive 
your free upgrade.

2.6 Multiple Installations
--------------------------
If you have multiple Palindrome installations, be sure you never
have search mappings to more than one installation in any login
script.  If your search mappings point to more than one
installation, the Palindrome backup product may use a different
installation's databases.
 
3. NOVELL - CLIB, ETC.
=======================

3.1 Novell Patches
------------------
Network Archivist NLM uses the NetWare 386 C Runtime Library from
Novell (CLIB.NLM).  The original CLIB, dated 2/14/91, requires
the following patches: PATCH311, PATCHMAN, and CLIBP002 (these
patches are copied to your Network Archivist installation
directory by the INSTALL program).

If you are using a version of CLIB.NLM dated after 2/14/91, you
will not need to load the patches.

If you do need to use the Novell patches, copy the patches from your 
installation directory to your SYS:\SYSTEM directory, load CLIB 
and then the patches in the order listed above.  If the patches are not 
loaded in the proper order, other Network Archivist NLMs will not 
load (see the Network Archivist Installation and Support Guide 
for further information).

3.2 Multiple Server Environment
-------------------------------
If using the Network Archivist NLM to backup multiple servers, be
sure the server on which the Network Archivist NLM is installed
has the NetWare set command "Reply to Get Nearest Server" set to
"ON" (the default setting). If it is not set to ON, the Network
Archivist NLM will not be able to access remote servers. 

3.3 MONITOR.NLM 
---------------
Using the current MONITOR.NLM and the LOCK KEYBOARD menu option,
you may experience security problems.  When Network Archivist
NLMs are auto-loaded (either remotely from a workstation or at
the time of unattended nightly backup) the server console screen
will become unlocked, and the MONITOR.NLM will appear to have
been unloaded.  Novell has corrected this problem and the
corrected MONITOR.NLM can be obtained on CompuServe in the NOVLIB
area. The file is named MON175.zip.

3.4 Current CLIB.NLM
--------------------
Using the original version of the NetWare 386 C Runtime Library
from Novell (CLIB.NLM dated 2/14/91), the following anomalies may
be encountered when backing up and restoring NetWare 2.x, 3.x,
and AFP (Apple File Protocol) server/volumes. 
 
Below is a listing by category:

3.4.1 NetWare 2.x:
------------------
 >>Directory Names

     -Directory names with non-standard ASCII characters are not
     properly restored.  Again, the directory itself is properly
     restored, but characters with an ASCII value above 127 will
     be returned incorrectly in the Directory name.

     -Directory names of more than 12 characters will not be
     backed up or restored by the Network Archivist NLM.  If the
     program encounters a directory with an extended name, a 370
     error will result.

 >>Hidden/System Files

     -The Network Archivist NLM will not read the archive
     date/time for NetWare 2.x files with the system or hidden
     attribute set. This results in incorrect archive date/times
     being restored.

     -When restoring a NetWare 2.x DOS directory, system or
     hidden attributes will not be set; however, the directory is
     restored.

     -The Network Archivist NLM will not read the OWNER ID of
     NetWare 2.x files (excluding root directory files) that have
     the system or hidden bit set.  These files will be backed up
     and restored properly, except for the OWNER ID.

     -When redirecting files (with the system or hidden attribute
     set) from  one NetWare 286 volume to another, the READ AUDIT
     bit will be set on the redirected file.
   
 >>Redirected Files

     -When files are redirected from a NetWare 3.11 volume to a
     NetWare 2.11 volume, the Network Archivist NLM sets the
     files Archive Time to 00:00:00.  The Archive Date is set
     correctly, however. 

3.4.2 NetWare 3.X
-----------------

     -The Network Archivist NLM cannot set the Archiver ID (i.e.,
     the object ID of the user archiving the file; NOT to be
     confused with the Network Archivist ARCHIVE ID) when backing
     up and restoring files on NetWare 3.x servers.  

     -The Network Archivist NLM cannot backup or restore trustees
     on root directories of remote NetWare 3.x server volumes
     that have long names (14 or more characters). 
    
     -When backing up non-AFP files with extended attributes set
     on NetWare 3.01 volumes, the extended attributes will no
     longer be set. The attributes are backed up and restored
     correctly, however.

 >>AFP Files and Directories

     -AFP directories that have been backed up are restored with
     the incorrect archive time.  The archive date is restored
     correctly however.

     -When an AFP File is opened READ ONLY/DENY NONE and at the
     same time is requested to be restored, the file will still
     be restored. This occurrence should be extremely rare (if
     ever) because this type of open file is unusual.

     -In the NLM environment, PNA does not recognize resource
     fork  modifications and will not checkpoint the file.  Any
     data fork  changes will be recognized however.
     
     -If a resource fork is being edited during a backup session,
     PNA cannot backup the file as "suspect" as it would a DOS
     file. Instead, you will receive a File Open error in the
     PNA_LOG file.

     -When restoring an Macintosh directory, the DOS owner ID is
     restored but the AFP owner ID is not.

3.5 Loading IPXODI
------------------
If using the ODI driver (IPXODI) do not load it with the "a"
command line parameter. The "a" switch disables SPX which
RCONSOLE relies on.
                          
3.6 NetWare 4.0
---------------
Network Archivist can back up NetWare 4.0 servers. Current testing, however, 
shows that if Network Archivist is installed on a NetWare 4.0 server, it 
cannot protect remote servers (any version). Novell and Palindrome are 
currently working on a patch to correct this situation.

4. HARDWARE
===========

4.1 PALDIAG.NLM - Device Diagnostics
------------------------------------

Included on the distribution diskettes is a Palindrome utility--
PALDIAG.NLM--useful for determining if you have basic
communication with your backup device(s). It also provides often
necessary information concerning what version of firmware and
what model backup device you have.

Palindrome recommends using this utility during the installation
process to ensure proper communication with devices.  PALDIAG can
also be used to perform diagnostics on tape drives.  For complete
information on PALDIAG, refer to the Reference Guide for more
information. 

4.2 Palindrome Drives and SCSI Bus Termination
----------------------------------------------

Please note that ALL of the Palindrome supplied tape drives are
shipped without internal termination.  In order to provide proper
SCSI bus termination and ensure proper data protection, please
follow the instructions in the Network Archivist NLM Installation
and Support Guide.

>>EXABYTE 8500-Based drives and SCSI Host Adapters Set in
Synchronous Mode

For any FAST 5000 (or other Exabyte 8500) tape drive, the default
transfer mode is asynchronous; meanwhile the default transfer
mode of the Adaptec 1640 and Adaptec 1740 adapters is
synchronous.  When the server starts up, the adapter will
negotiate the transfer mode with the tape drive and set up as
synchronous transfer. This may cause a conflict if the tape drive
is ever disconnected or powered off and then powered on again
while the server is still running since the tape drive will
default to asynchronous transfer.  Always power on the tape drive
prior to powering on your server.

The first time you power on the drive after the server has booted
the adapter will negotiate transfer mode with the drive.  For any
subsequent tape drive power on/off signals, however, the adapter
will fail to renegotiate transfer mode.  The next tape operation
will lock the tape screen on the server.

If the tape operation is hanging, do not UNLOAD it.  Shut off the
tape drive.  PNA should detect this after a short while and
return an error pop-up, at which time you can abort the
operation.  Once done, or if this fails, DOWN the server at the
next available time (except for using some memory, it won't hurt
to have the tape nlm loaded).  Recycle power on both the tape
drive and server.  Future firmware revisions to the drive are planned to
add this negotiation phase.

4.3 HAC-1540B-A16 (AT SCSI Host Adapter)
----------------------------------------

You should disable the J6 jumper (AT BIOS) or change the tape
drive SCSI address to 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.  This jumper should only
be enabled if you are attaching a SCSI BOOT hard disk to the
adapter (not recommended).  Refer to the documentation that comes
with the host adapter for complete details.

4.4 Servers With More Than 16MB of RAM 
--------------------------------------
If your server has more than 16MB of RAM and you are using a SCSI
Host Adapter that cannot access more than 16MB of RAM (such as
the Adaptec 1640 and 1540B cards), you will need to use the
ABOVE16MEG parameter when loading PALSDRV.NLM.  Please see 
Page 1-4 of the Reference Guide for more information.

5. DOCUMENTATION CORRECTIONS
============================
In Chapter 3 of the User's Guide, the AutoLoader Software section
mentions to type in the serial number from the distribution
diskette. The serial number is on the registration card.

Chapter 1 of the Reference Guide has examples of Full Export operations
that show file specifications in the command line. A Full Export is 
performed on a volume level only--you cannot specify files.
CORRECT:   "PNABACK /FX  FS1\SYS:"
INCORRECT: "PNABACK /FX  FS1\SYS:\*.*"

On page 1-11 of the Reference Guide, Example 1 under the media label
description displays invalid syntax for forcing a rotation to a "managed" 
media. The managed media label should not be in braces { }.
CORRECT:   "PNABACK /A /LADMIN_B1
INCORRECT: "PNABACK /A /L{ADMIN_B1}

6. UTILITY PROGRAMS
===================
Included on the distribution diskette #3 are two Palindrome
utility programs--one for protecting and restoring NetWare
Directory Service installations and another for correcting File
History Database errors.

6.1 NetWare Directory Services Backup/Restore Utility
-----------------------------------------------------
DSARC.NLM and DSREST.NLM are a pair of BETA utilities that use
NetWare's Storage Management Services to backup (DSARC) and
restore (DSREST) the objects in the NetWare Directory Services
database. For more information on these files, see the DSREAD.TXT
in the NDS directory on Disk 3.

6.2 SNAPDEL.EXE
---------------
SNAPDEL.EXE can be used to correct File History Database errors
(specifically, CT-31 and CT-36).  SNAPDEL.TXT, also on the
diskette, describes how to use the utility.


7. NETWORK ARCHIVIST 3.0 FEATURES
=================================

7.1 Storage Device Support
---------------------------
Multiple Device Support - includes support for multiple
sequential (tape) and/or random access devices within a single
installation.  Devices can be on the same controller card or on
separate controller cards.

Random Access Device Support - complete support for industry
standard random access devices (e.g., Magneto Optical, Phase
Change Optical, etc.) for backup and/or archiving operations. 
Includes support for stand-alone or jukebox devices.

Device Configuration - provides the ability to assign each device
a logical name and configure device usage (i.e., restore only). 
Provides device prioritization for backup, archive, restore and
export operations in order to leverage the unique attributes and
benefits of each device type.  This allows customers to slowly
migrate their installation to new hardware technology.  For
example, a customer with a Archive Viper (DC 600) tape drive
could add a new Hewlett-Packard DAT drive to their installation,
configure the Viper as Read-Only and begin migrating their data
to the new technology while still retaining the ability to
restore data from the older technology.

Expanded Device Support - increased hardware independence through
the support of key industry standard storage devices and
controller cards.

Media Copy Capability - supports the ability to copy data from
one piece of media to another for both similar media types and
dissimilar media types.  This capability provides a mechanism for
enhancing disaster recovery capabilities by permitting a full
data set on site and off-site.  This capability also supports the
migration from one media type to another by permitting, for
example, the ability to copy data from a DC 600 tape to an
optical disk.

Enhanced Robotic Changer Support - expands support to include
both tape autoloaders and optical jukeboxes.  Also includes
support for bar-code readers, entry/exit port doors and multiple
drive loaders via the "Shared Robotics" support.  Support also
includes the ability to handle a cleaning cartridge in the loader
without over-cleaning the drive.

7.2 Media Scheduling 
---------------------
Grandfather/Father/Son or Tower of Hanoi - provides the ability
to select the appropriate rotation strategy for your environment. 
GFS offers the benefit of simplicity and predictability while
Tower of Hanoi provides a more advanced schedule designed to vary
media usage for better reliability and ensure appropriate data
archiving and version protection.

Configurable Vault Rotation  - allows the administrator to
configure the number of media sets that are permitted on site and
the number of days prior to vault rotation in which to be
notified.

Configurable Rotation Day(s) - allows for the configuration of
automatic media set rotation to a given day or multiple days
under Tower of Hanoi.  Under GFS scheduling, there are parameters
to configure the occurrence of Weekly and Monthly media set
rotations.

Backup Retention - provides the ability to configure the minimum
number of backup sessions to be retained (in days) by the system. 
The maximum number is determined by the scheduling algorithm.  In
addition, the GFS schedule provides a mechanism for automatically
preserving Weekly or Monthly backups.

Daily Media Change - used to indicate that a new piece of media
should be used each day (i.e., Monday-A1, Tuesday-A2, Wednesday-
A3, etc.). 

Configurable Full Day(s) -  allows for the configuration of 
automatic full backups on a given day or multiple days.  Tower of
Hanoi only; GFS automatically performs full backups daily.

Rotation Prediction - allows the user to display the next several
rotations by day and indicates the media requested for that
rotation.


7.3 Error Handling
-------------------
Error Display Window - new error window provides scrollable
window for detailed description of problem as well as recommended
actions.

Help on Error - allows users to specify an error number from
within the user interface and then display and scroll through the
information pertaining to that error message.

Resource Files - all source error message information is now
stored in separate resource files.  The files can be updated
independently of the software to provide timely updates on error
handling information and internationalization.

Low-level Error Handling - the software now handles individual
database corruptions and ensures the remainder of the backup is
completed.  An individual file history database corruption no
longer prevents the completion of the entire backup.  If such a
corruption is encountered, the problem is logged.

Database Reliability - file history databases are now copied to a
central location during execution and the backup copy is updated. 
This prevents database corruptions in the event that a system
error occurs across the network during the updating of the
database.  Once the database is successfully updated, it is
copied back to the original location.  This also provides a
performance improvement on database intensive operations since
the database is now accessed locally rather than remotely.

Unscheduled Rotations Logged - the software now logs when an
unscheduled rotation takes place in the error log.
 
7.4 User Interface 
-------------------
Restore Menu - a separate restore menu has been added that
supports restore original, restore redirected, and restore flat
operations from within the menus.

Byte/File Counter - the byte and file counters now support values
larger than 1GB.

Network View - a new network oriented interface has been added
"on top of" the volume level interface in previous versions. 
This new interface replaces the TNARECOV (and PBDRECOV) program
and provides additional volume-oriented capabilities.  For
example, an entire server can be "tagged" to do a full checkpoint
operation.

File Finder - the File menu now includes a File Finder to
simplify the identification of files for backup or restore
operations.

7.5 Miscellaneous
------------------
System Control Database - the limitation on System Control
Database size that existed in previous versions of the software
has been eliminated.

Auto Format - the auto format parameter has been removed to avoid
accidental formatting of media.  Media formatting can be done via
the menus or from the command line.

Single File Restore Performance - single file restores no longer
scan the entire volume when a single file is selected for
restore.

Enhanced Export/Import Flexibility - export and import operations
no longer require and existing Network Archivist File History
database to complete.

Configurable Migration Threshold - the migration threshold can
now be configured by the administrator.  This value applies to
all volumes in the Protected Volume List.

Single Session Password - the checkpoint and save password fields
have been combined into a single session password that provides
security for each backup session.

Control Database/History Database/Network Security Redirection -
the RC, RH, and RN restore operations now accept a destination
path as well as a server/volume for redirection.

Serialization - serial numbers are now provided on pre-printed
registration cards.  A license also retains its original serial
number as it is upgraded in the future.

Elimination of Checkpoint Only Media Sets - all media sets will
be eligible for both save and checkpoint operations.

PALDIAG - a new utility to provide diagnostic capabilities for
analyzing an installation and specific media.  Incorporates the
previous SCSISCAN and PALQTT utilities and enhances their
capabilities.
