At a minimum you will need to download and install the Framework Server (server component), and TapeMaster (client component).

Depending on your requirements you may also want to download:

• Lite: Windows Wizard that guides users with a minimal number of Volumes through the process of sending Volumes offsite and scanning them in when they return.
• Sync: A powerful toolkit that allows you to set fields within TapeTrack based upon the values of fields within your backup or tape management software.

Decide what platform you want to run your TapeTrack Framework Server on. The TapeTrack Server component is available for both Windows and Linux, with the only functional difference being that the Linux version does not support Windows Active Directory integration.

TapeMaster, Lite and Checkpoint are available for Windows only.

The TapeTrack Server component requires only modest resources and can run on either a physical server or a virtualized server.

We recommend the following minimum specifications:

• 2 or more CPU cores.
• 4 GB of RAM.
• 2 GB of additional hard disk space.
• 1 Ethernet connection.

The following instructions are for downloading and installing TapeTrack Windows software, for Linux instructions to install the Framework Server see Linux Installation

Download the Framework Server executable.

If you are installing the Framework Server on a remote server, download TapeMaster and Server Utilities to your local computer to install the client side software. If required you can also download Lite, Checkpoint and/or Sync.

Once downloaded install Framework Server (server) first, this will also install TapeMaster (master) and the Server Utilities (utils).

If your Framework Server is installed on a remote or virtual server you will need to download and install TapeMaster and Utilities on your local machine separately.
