All Mirth servers should be configured to back up the alarm files.
The following are the steps to follow to perform a backup:
- In the Mirth server, launch the administrator console and login with
admin/admin UID/PWD.
- Click Channels.
- Select the Receiver channel and select the Edit Channel option.
- In the Destination tab, all the destinations are listed. This writes the
files to the defined location.
- Right-click on each destination and select the Clone Destination
option.
- Modify the directory path of that destination to be the backup server
destination. To implement this, create a shared directory on the backup
server which is accessible from the Mirth server. The shared path can be provided in the cloned destination.
- Save the changes using the Save Changes option.
- Redeploy the channel.
