Review the following Install Requirements before installing the software:

General

• Review Install Considerations before installing the software.
• Agents should be installed only after the CommServe and at least one MediaAgent have been installed in the CommCell. Also, keep in mind that the CommServe and MediaAgent must be installed and running (but not necessarily on the same computer), before you can install the Agent.
• Ensure there is an available license on the CommServe for the Agent.
• Verify that you have the Software Installation Disc that is appropriate to the destination computer’s operating system.

Before You Begin

• Log on to the client as root.
• The install package requires super-user permissions to execute.

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.

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.

Storage Policy Selection

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.

• The storage policy(ies) displayed on your screen may look different from the example shown.

1) SP_StandAloneLibrary2_2
2) SP_Library3_3
3) SP_MagLibrary4_4
4) fornax_fornax_HWCmp
