1. BACKUP AGENT PLUG-IN INSTALLATION  
About Backup Agent  
"Backup Agent" is a windows service that performs scheduled backup of all data managed on a TMS server in order to be able to  
restore this data in case of problem (server swap, failure). This service starts when the operating system is booted and run in the  
background as long as the operating system is running. A user interface allows an authorized technician to perform operations such  
as making a backup (unprogrammed), restore a conguration, or modify "Backup Agent" service settings.  
About the Plug-in  
This plug-in is a set of software components that adds specic abilities to the TMS software. Although it is an independent software,  
this plug-in only has interest when it is installed with a "Plaza Catcher" equipped with "TMS software" application.  
About this manual  
This manual describes the procedure and conditions for the installation of the “Backup Agent” service Plug-in.  
Overview  
1.1 Required conguration  
Requirements  
This plug-in can only be installed on a Plaza Catcher and its version must be the same as the TMS Software. Installing this plug-in  
on any other platform or using a non adapted version will not work.  
1.2 Plan your Plug-in Installation  
Intervention time required  
30 minutes.  
Impact on the theater organization  
Installing the plug-in and performing the "system backup" of your server may take several minutes, it is important to carefully plan  
this operation. During installation, the TMS server is no longer operational. You must ensure that the SMS have what they need to  
operate without the TMS, specically that they have all the necessary content for the planned playbacks.  
1.3 Installation process overview  
Two methods available  
There are two methods to install the “Backup Agent” plug-in. Either the installation package is remotely pushed on the server by the  
integrator, or the installation package can be placed at the root of one USB media.  
Make sure you have a single update source. If other update sources are present on the server (other USB me-  
dia, CD or remote repository directory) the automatic installation process will stop and a message requesting  
the deletion of concurrent updates will appear.

1. Backup Agent Plug-in Installation  
Procedure overview  
1. Perform the plug-in installation by choosing one of two possible deployment methods:  
-
-
Perform the installation provided by the integrator. See "Plug-in installation provided by the integrator", page 2 .  
Perform the installation from USB media. See "Plug-in installation from USB media", page 2 .  
2. Perform the “Backup Agent” setting. See "Setting of “Backup Agent” service", page 3 .  
3. Launch the rst backup.  
It is possible that the plug-in "Backup Agent" is distributed in the same package as the TMS application  
(Upgrade 5.6.3 and higher). In this case, the step 1 shouldn’t be performed. You must directly perform the  
parameters setting and the initial backup (step 2 and 3).  
Particular case of the Update  
It is possible to install the plug-in on a server where an earlier version of "Backup Agent" has already been deployed. In this case,  
the previous conguration is kept in place. It is not necessary to perform the conguration steps but it is recommended to launch  
the manual backups (step 3).  
1.4 Plug-in installation provided by the integrator  
This method requires that the server is connected to the internet. The integrator must be able to send the  
necessary les to install the plug-in before starting the procedure.  
How to perform the installation provided by the integrator.  
1. Make sure with your integrator that the installation package was remotely pushed on the server..  
2. Press the exit button in the TMS application.  
3. When the Logout panel appears, push on the “Update” button. The button is active when an update is available on the machine.  
Note: If the "update" button is not active, it means that the installation les are not yet present on the server. You must restart  
the complete procedure once the les are transferred. Check with your integrator  
4. The TMS application stops.  
5. The installation procedure runs automatically. This installation may take several minutes.  
6. After the installation, the server and the TMS application restart automatically. If this is not the case, restart the server manually  
by pressing the “reset” button on the front panel.  
Note: The installation le and its security key le are automatically removed from the usual update folder.  
1.5 Plug-in installation from USB media  
Necessary part  
USB media with the plug-in installation le and its security key le in root directory. Any other locations on the USB media will  
not be detected by the server. The USB media is not supplied by Barco.  
How to perform the installation from USB media  
1. Connect a USB media with the plug-in installation le and its security key le to the server.  
2. Wait a few seconds and press the exit button in the TMS application.  
3. When the Logout panel appears, push on the “Update” button. The button is active when an update is available on the machine.  
Note: If the "update" button is not active, it means that the installation les are not present on the USB media or the USB media  
is not correctly connected to the server. You must restart the complete procedure once the installation les are correctly  
placed on a well connected USB media.  
4. The TMS application stops.  
5. The installation procedure runs automatically. This installation may take several minutes.  
6. After the installation, the server and the TMS application restart automatically. If this is not the case, restart the server manually  
by pressing the “reset” button on the front panel.  
7. Disconnect the USB media to not interfere with any other future update.
