Configuring an AS300
single-host Server or
dedicated Database
Server
After you have installed the necessary IMPAX packages on an AS300 single-host or AS300 Database
Server and have installed the Application Server, configure the system components for initial use. If
the database is an Oracle Database Server on a Solaris host (in a mixed-host configuration), refer to
the IMPAX 6.3 AS3000 Installation and Configuration Guide instead. For more information on how to
configure the IMPAX system using the Administration Tools, refer to the Administration Tools component
of the IMPAX 6.3 Server Knowledge Base.
Performing the initial database backup
To guard against information loss, you must back up the information to 4mm tapes or disk on a daily
basis. In case of a system failure, the database can then be restored by Agfa HealthCare or your local
vendor from the copy.
CAUTION!
If you are using a tape backup, to ensure that you have up-to-date backups and backups in reserve,
change the tape daily. Otherwise, the daily backup overwrites the contents of the tape in the drive.
You must do an initial manual backup of your database. Otherwise, SQL Server assumes that you do
not want transaction logs maintained.
