This page: http://mms.mongodb.com/help-hosted/v1.4/tutorial/install-backup-server-with-rpm-packages/, states in the prerequisites section:

To install the optional MMS Backup components you must first install and
configure the MMS Backup Daemon Server and the MMS Backup
Blockstore Database.

But the instructions that follow are about installing the MMS Backup Daemon Server. It feels like we are saying that the Backup Daemon is a prerequisite of itself, which obviously doesn't make sense. After reading the above section, I up back tracking to see what I missed before I understood what was going on.
