Prepare the Target Server

Prepare the target server before importing the STA database. The target server must run the same version of Linux and STA as the current server.

Refer to the STA Installation and Configuration Guide to perform the following:

  1. Install Linux on the target server.
  2. Install STA on the target server.
  3. On all libraries monitored by STA:
    1. Add the target server as an SNMP trap recipient; this will cause the libraries to send SNMP data to the target server.
    2. If the target server is replacing the current STA server, remove the current STA server as an SNMP trap recipient; this will cause the libraries to stop sending SNMP data to the current server.
