Certain Calypso
packages can be associated with a virtual IP, or in other words, installed
on a "virtual machine" belonging to some cluster. At any given time the
virtual machine's services and IP address are active on only one of the
cluster's servers. The virtual machine can "fail-over" from one server to
another, which includes stopping services and deactivating IP address on
the first server and activating the IP address/services on the other server. 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] |

7. |
If you have only one network interface, press Enter
to accept the default network interface name and continue. If you have multiple network interfaces, enter the interface name that you wish to use as default, and then press Enter.
|
We found one network
interface available on your machine. We will associate it with the physical
machine being installed, and it will also be used by the CommServe to connect
to the physical machine. Note that you will be able to additionally customize
Datapipe Interface Pairs used for the backup data traffic later in the Calypso
Java GUI. Please check the interface name below, and make connections if necessary: Physical Machine Host Name: [angel.company.com] |
||
8. | Press Enter. |
Please specify the client
name for this machine. 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 Client name: [angel] |

Installation Scripts
Pack provides extra functions and latest support and fix performed during
setup time. Please specify how you want to get this pack. If you choose to download it from the website now, please make sure you have internet connectivity at this time. This process may take some time depending on the internet connectivity. 1) Download from the software provider website. 2) Use the one in the installation media 3) Use the copy I already have by entering its unix path Your choice: [1] 2 |
||
13. |
Press Enter to accept the default path.
|
Please specify where
you want us to install Calypso binaries. It must be a local directory and there should be at least 176MB 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] |
||
14. |
Press Enter to accept the default location.
|
Please specify where
you want to keep Calypso log files. 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] |
||
15. | Press Enter. |
Most of Software
processes run with root privileges, but some are launched by databases and
inherit database access rights. To make sure that registry and log files
can be written to by both kinds of processes we can either make such files
world-writeable or we can grant write access only to processes belonging
to a particular group, e.g. a "calypso" or a "dba"
group. 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 Software processes, you will need to specify the access permissions later. If you're planning to backup Oracle DB you should use "dba" group. Would you like to assign a specific group to Software? [yes] |
||
16. |
Type the Group name and press Enter. Press Enter again. |
Please enter the name
of the group which will be assigned to all Software files and on behalf
of which all Software processes will run.
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: sky1 REMINDER If you are planning to install Calypso Informix, DB2, PostgreSQL, Sybase or Lotus Notes iDataAgent, please make sure to include Informix, DB2, etc. users into group "sky1". Press <ENTER> to continue ... |

press Enter. Type a network TCP port number for the Client Event Manager Service (EvMgrC) and press Enter. |
Every instance of Calypso
should use a unique set of network ports to avoid interfering with other
instances running on the same machine. The port numbers selected must be from the reserved port number range and have not been registered by another application on this machine. Please enter the port numbers. Port Number for CVD : [8400] Port Number for EvMgrC: [8402] |
||

For every snapshot taken CXBF driver
creates a sparse file where it puts copy-on-write data blocks and block bitmap.
These COW files are created in a dedicated directory that should satisfy a few
requirements:
1) It should be a local directory for performance reasons, 2) It should have sufficient amount of space, 3) In case of Solaris UFS, it should have journaling turned off. COW Cache Directory: [/space/opt/calypso2/CXBF/cache] |

Otherwise, type no and edit the affected etc
system script as shown below. For Red Hat Linux, update the /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit file as follows: /etc/init.d/cxbf start For SuSE Linux, update the /etc/rc.d/boot.localfs file as follows: /etc/init.d/cxbf start For Solaris, update the /etc/rc0 file as follows: echo "Bull CXBF:
updating the cxbf on disk bitmaps." |
We now need to make some changes to your
<etc file path> system script.
We can either make these changes ourselves at this time, or we can explain what has to be modified so that you can do it yourself. Would you like us to modify <etc file> now? [yes] |

Certain Calypso packages can be
associated with a virtual IP, or in other words, installed on a "virtual machine"
belonging to some cluster. At any given time the virtual machine's services and
IP address are active on only one of the cluster's servers. The virtual machine
can "fail-over" from one server to another, which includes stopping services and
deactivating IP address on the first server and activating the IP address/services
on the other server. Currently you have Calypso installed on physical node angel.company.com. Now you have a choice of either adding another package to the existing installation or configure Calypso on a virtual machine for use in a cluster. 1) Add another package to angel.company.com 2) Install Calypso on a virtual machine 3) Exit Your choice: [3] |
