Install the Unix File System iDataAgents - Clustered Environment

You can also install the product using a disc drive mounted on another computer on the network.

• On Solaris, double-click the cvpkgadd program from the File Manager window.
• On other Unix platforms, open the Terminal window, navigate to the software installation disc and then enter cvpkgadd. 

Press Enter to continue.

You now have a choice of performing a regular Calypso install on the physical host or installing Calypso on a virtual machine for operation within a cluster.

Most users should select "Install on a physical machine" here.

1) Install on a physical machine

2) Install on a virtual machine

3) Exit

Your choice: [1]

WARNING: You should follow this path ONLY if this host participates in a cluster and you really want to install Calypso on the virtual machine. This is NOT how most people will use Calypso.

If you got into this screen by mistake, hit ^C and restart cvpkgadd.

Virtual Machine Host Name:

Would you like to use fully qualified "example.company.com" instead of "example"?

Use longer "example.company.com" name? [yes]

If you still must install for the active node, type no, press Enter, and perform the install for the virtual machine for the active node.

NOTES

• This prompt appears only when installing on a passive node.

It does not have to be the network host name: you can enter any word here without spaces. The only requirement is that it must be unique on the CommServe.

Virtual Machine Client Name: [hpuxmc1]

NOTES

• This prompt appears only when the UNIX File System iDataAgent is not installed on the physical node.

Network interfaces with the following IPs are available on your system. Please select the one that you want to be associated with Calypso physical machine. The interface should be static, and should not get disabled in case of cluster failover.

1) mackrel71
2) mackrel
3) mackrel1

Interface number: [1] 2

Physical Hostname: [mackrel]

It does not have to be the network host name: you can enter any word here without spaces. The only requirement is that it must be unique on the CommServe.

Physical Machine Node Name: [mackrel]

NOTES

• Your screen may look different from the example shown.
• Components that either have already been installed, or which cannot be installed, will not be shown.
• In addition, the list of modules that appear depends on the specific Unix File System in which the package is installed. (e.g., CVGxWA will appear only when the installation package is run on a Solaris computer.)

Press Enter to continue.

Select the Calypso module that you would like to install

1) Media Agent             <= CVGxMA
2) FileSystem iDataAgent   <= CVGxIDA
3) Exit this menu

NOTES

• The amount of free space required depends on the components selected for install, and may look different from the example shown.

Press Enter to accept the default path and continue, or
Enter a path and then press Enter to continue.

Press Enter again to confirm the path.

It must be a local directory and there should be at least 170MB of free space available. All files will be installed in a "calypso" subdirectory, so if you enter "/opt", the files will actually be placed into "/opt/calypso".

Installation Directory: [/opt]

..

Calypso will be installed in /opt/calypso.
Press ENTER to continue ...

NOTES

• All the modules installed on the computer will store the log files in this directory.
• The amount of free space required depends on the components selected for install, and may look different from the example shown.

Press Enter to accept the default path and continue, or
Enter a path and then press Enter to continue.

Press Enter again to confirm the path.

It must be a local directory and there should be at least 100MB of free space available. All log files will be created in a "calypso/Log_Files" subdirectory, so if you enter "/var/log", the logs will actually be placed into "/var/log/calypso/Log_Files".

Log Directory: [/var/log]

..

Calypso log files will be created in /var/log/calypso/Log_Files.
Press ENTER to continue ...

Press Enter to assign a new group, or
Type No and then press Enter to continue.

We highly recommend now that you create a new user group and enter its name in the next setup screen. If you choose not to assign a dedicated group to Calypso processes, all temporary and configuration files will be created with -rw-rw-rw permissions.

If you're planning to backup Oracle DB you should use "dba" group.

Would you like to assign a specific group to Calypso? [yes]

Enter the group name and then press Enter to continue.

Press Enter again to continue.

For installs on a Solaris computer, proceed to the next step. Otherwise, skip to Storage Policy Selection.

In most of the cases it's a good idea to create a dedicated "calypso" group. However, if you're planning to use Oracle iDataAgent or SAP Agent, you should enter Oracle's "dba" group here.

Group name: dba

REMINDER

If you are planning to install Calypso Informix, DB2, Sybase or Lotus Notes iDataAgent, please make sure to include Informix, DB2, etc. users into group "dba".
Press <ENTER> to continue ...

Type a network TCP port number for the Client Event Manager Service (EvMgrC) and press Enter.

NOTES

• For more information about Network TCP Ports, see Network TCP Port Requirements.
• For more information about these services, see Services.

Press Enter, if you do not wish to configure the firewall services. Proceed to the next section.

NOTES

• Specify the range of ports that must be used for communication between the Client and CommServe and/or MediaAgent computers. For more information on the port requirements, see Port Requirements for Two-way Firewall or Port Requirements for One-way Firewall, as applicable.

If this machine is not reachable from the other side of the firewall at all (because the FW is one-way and allows only outgoing connections), enter any unused port number here (e.g. 8600).
Otherwise please consult your FW configuration for the list of open incoming ports and enter all of them here (with the exception of port 8400).

Currently there are no ports configured. Please enter a single port number or a port range (like 8600-8620) to be added to the FW configuration:

Port range: [8600-8620]

NOTES

• If you choose option 1, refer the previous step.
• If you choose option 3, proceed to the next step.

You can specify hosts by either entering their names, IP addresses or name/IP wildcards. The wildcards are available only if the firewall is symmetrical, i.e. allows to open connections to certain ports both ways.

Currently there are no firewall hosts configured.

Please enter the name or IP address of a host on the other side of the firewall. If the firewall is symmetrical, you are allowed to use wildcards, i.e. things like 192.168.* or *.firewall.company.com:

Firewalled Host: lavender.company.com

NOTES

• Choose Two-way (symmetrical) firewall if you can open certain ports as bi-directional ports.
• Choose One-way firewall; <port> is reachable from here if this computer communicates with MediaAgent/Client on the other side of the firewall.
• Choose One-way firewall; this machine is reachable from <port> when the CommServe and any Clients/MediaAgents) communicates with this computer.

NOTES

• If you choose option 1, refer the previous two steps.
• If you choose option 3, proceed to the next step.

Many firewalls disconnect idle Network connections after some period of time. Some of the Calypso Services need continuous connections. Calypso keeps such connections active by sending periodic "keep-alive" packets.
Consult your firewall documentation, or contact your Network Administrator, for the exact value after which idle connections will be closed (snip time). Then enter a value, which is at least one minute less than the snip time.

Keep-alive interval, minutes [5]

If you do not want to configure advanced firewall settings, type No, and then press Enter. Proceed to the next section.

Would you like to review the advanced settings now? [no]

If you do not want to bind the local end of tunnel connections to a specified interface, type No, and then press Enter. Skip the next Step.

Sometimes, however, on hosts with several NICs it's important to force the OS to bind the local socket end to a specific network interface. There is a Calypso setting called 1mnBIND_BEFORE_CONNECT_IFACEm, which enables this behavior. If present, Calypso will bind the local end of tunnel connections to the specified interface.

Would you like to configure nBIND_BEFORE_CONNECT_IFACE? [no]

Press Enter to continue.

1) <ip_address>

Interface number: [1]

Press Enter to continue.

Here you can adjust the interval (called 1mnTUNNEL_INIT_INTERVALm in registry) between tunnel init attempts.

Tunnel Init Interval, seconds, [5]

NOTES

• Ensure that the CommServe is accessible before typing the name; otherwise the installation will fail.
• If you enter a short name which resolves to the same IP address as the fully qualified CommServe name, you will be asked if you would prefer to use the fully qualified name.

CommServe Name:

NOTES

• This is only displayed when the Authentication for Agent feature is enabled in the CommCell Properties. Users must belong to a User Group with Agent Management capabilities to enable this feature. For more information, see Authentication for Agent Installs.

NOTES

• All the agent modules installed on the computer uses the job results directory to store the backup and restore job results.
• The amount of free space required depends on the components selected for install, and may look different from the example shown.

Press Enter to accept the default path and continue, or
Enter a path and then press Enter to continue.

Since you are installing Calypso on a virtual machine, the JobResults directory must reside on a shared disk and should have at least 20MB of free space available. The directory will be used to store intermediate data that should be passed from one backup phase to another.

JobResults Directory: [/swtitchover/]

NOTES

• The number of streams specified ensures that concurrent backup/restore streams would have sufficient system resources. For more information on the subject, see Configuring Kernel Parameters (Unix/Macintosh).

This prompt is relevant only when you install/upgrade on a Macintosh or Solaris computer as appropriate.

Number of streams: [10]

Type Yes, and then press Enter to automatically update the file and continue, or
Press Enter to accept the default No and continue (if you do not want to automatically update the file).

This prompt is displayed only when you install/upgrade on a Solaris or Macintosh computer.

Please review the changes below and answer "yes" if you want us to apply them to the /etc/system file. Otherwise, the installation will proceed, the changes will be saved to some other file, and you will have to apply them manually.

set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=8570 (was 7930)
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=8420 (was 7780)
set semsys:seminfo_semmns=10320 (was 9680)
set semsys:seminfo_semmni=8570 (was 7930)

NOTES

• The settings that are displayed are the maximum or minimum required settings. Value ’640’, which is provided for various shared memory segment or semaphore requirements, is a maximum value based on 10 streams.

Press Enter to continue.

This prompt is displayed only when you install/upgrade on a Solaris computer, in cases where the install detects that the computer does not have the maximum or minimum required shared memory settings.

set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4199304
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1
set semsys:shminfo_shmmni=640
set semsys:shminfo_shmseg=640

set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=640
set maxusers=256

NOTES

• A storage policy directs backup data to a media library. Each library has a default storage policy.
• When you install an Agent, the install program creates a default subclient for most Agents.
• If desired, you can change your storage policy selection at any time after you have installed the client software.
• If this screen appears more than once, it is because you have selected multiple agents for installation and are configuring storage policy association for each of the installed agents.

1) SP_StandAloneLibrary2_2
2) SP_Library3_3
3) SP_MagLibrary4_4
4) fornax_fornax_HWCmp
5) ranger_ranger_HWCmp
6) fornax_fornax_ClntCmp
7) fornax_fornax_MACmp
8) fornax_fornax_NoCmp

Storage Policy: [3]

NOTES

• Select Use Cell level Policy to inherit the global filter policy configuration set for the CommCell, i.e., if the Use Global Filters on All Subclients option is selected in the Global Filters dialog box (from the CommCell Console’s Control Panel), then this policy will be applied to the default subclient as well. If is not selected, then the global filters will not be applied to the default subclient.
• Select Always use Global filters to always apply the global filters policy to the default subclient regardless of the policy set for the CommCell.
• Select Do not use Global filters to disregard applying the global filters to the default subclient regardless of the policy set for the CommCell.

1) Use Cell level policy
2) Always use Global filters
3) Do not use Global filters

Please select how to set the Global Filters for the default subclient? [1]

A confirmation screen will mark your choice with an "X". Type the number for Done with the Selection, and press Enter to continue.

NOTES

• This screen will be displayed only if Client Groups are configured for the CommCell. For more information, see Client Computer Groups.

NOTES

• Schedules help ensure that the data protection operations for the Agent are automatically performed on a regular basis without user intervention. For more information, see Scheduling.

IMPORTANT:

In addition to installing Calypso on this computer, you will also need to create a Job Schedule for each iDataAgent that has been installed on this client computer.

Job Schedules are required to allow the Calypso iDataAgents to perform automated backup and restore operations.

Job Schedule creation can be accomplished through the Calypso CommCell Console administration interface.
