UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X Client Agent Configuration File
Port Address Configuration
The default TCP and UDP ports are 6051. The TCP port is used for
communication and data transfer between the backup server (cprocess) and
the client agent. The Backup Manager user interface uses the UDP port to
browse hosts.
If you want to configure either the TCP port or the UDP port, or both, you
must modify the configuration files on both the BrightStor ARCserve Backup
server and the client agent so that their values match.
The names of the configuration files are as follows:
port.cfg
—for BrightStor ARCserve Backup UNIX and Linux servers
CAPortConfig.cfg
—for BrightStor ARCserve Backup Windows servers
agent.cfg
—for client agents
Note:
See UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X Client Agent Control Files for important
information about the UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X configuration files.
The following example shows the syntax for the UNIX and Linux server
configuration file (port.cfg) and the Windows server configuration file
(CAPortConfig.cfg):
#Hostname
IP address (optional)
TCP port
UDP port
#myhost
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
6051
6051
The following example shows the syntax for the client agent configuration file
(agent.cfg):
[36]
NAME
BABcmagt
HOME
/opt/CA/BABcmagt
TCP_PORT
7090
UDP_PORT
7085
UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X Client Agent Control Files
The UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X client agent control files
specify which
directories, file systems, or file system types are to be excluded from backup
operations on a specific workstation. In particular, the following packages
must be installed with the UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X client agents:
The Computer Associates Common Agent
The Computer Associates UNIX File System Agent (uagent)
Note:
You must install the Common Agent before you install the uagent.
