Installing the CA BrightStor ARCserve Agent
This section explains how to install the CA BrightStor ARCserve Agent versions
11.5 and 12.0.
Note
This procedure assumes that you are using the default Snap Server
configuration; and you have created a directory called
agent
(to which to copy your
agent/client files) on the default share (SHARE1), such that the path to the directory
is /
shares/SHARE1/agent
.
Note
Installing the BrightStor ARCserve backup agent on a Snap Server requires
three agent (
*.rpm
) files. These agent files are available from your BrightStor
ARCserve CD, but some ARCserve CDs may not contain all the required files. To
obtain the files you need, contact Computer Associates. If you have questions about
the agent configuration, refer to your CA ARCserve documentation.
Prepare the Snap Server
1
Connect to the Snap Server via SSH.
Note
SSH v2 is required. If you fail to connect to the server, ensure that your SSH
client is configured to connect via SSH v2.
2
At the prompt, log in as admin
,
using the password you created for this account
during the initial setup of the server.
3
You are placed into the CLI shell.
However, a standard Linux shell must be used
to install the agent. To launch a shell, type the following command and press
Enter:
osshell
4
To change to superuser, enter the following command, and press
Enter
:
su -
5
At the prompt, enter the admin user password, and press
Enter
.
6
To change to the agent directory, type the following command and press
Enter
:
cd /shares/SHARE1/agent
7
To unpack the tar file to get the agent files, type the following command and
press
Enter:
tar -zxvf Linux.tar.Z
Note
If you later delete the volume this directory is on, you will need to reinstall
the agent.
