Use the following steps to install the File System iDataAgent on a Global Zone or a Solaris Server.
Install the software directly on the computer that you wish to protect. This can be one of the following:
It is recommended to install the software on the global zone to protect non-changing or static data on non-global zones. If the data is dynamic or contains application data, install the software on the non-global zone.
Make sure the computer satisfies the minimum requirements specified in the System Requirements.
Installation |
Before You Begin |
||
|
Download the latest software package to perform the install. Verify that the computer in which you wish to install the software satisfies the System Requirements. |
1. |
Logon to the client computer as root or as a sudo user. If you are installing the software using a sudo user account, make sure that sudo user account is configured on this computer. For more information, see FAQ - Install. |
|||
2. |
If you are installing the software from CD, run the following command to
mount the CD: mount -r -F hsfs /dev/sr0 /cdrom Run the following command from the Software Installation Package or mount point: ./cvpkgadd |

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] |
||
8. |
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] |
||
9. | 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] |

15. |
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] |
||
16. |
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] |

17. | 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] |
||
18. |
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 accept the default value for Number of Streams.
|
Number of Streams IMPORTANT : Please read install document "Configure Kernel Parameters - Unix/Macintosh" from "Books Online" before you start configuring kernel parameters. Please enter the total number of streams that you plan to run at the same time. We need to make sure that you have enough semaphores and shared memory segments configured in /etc/system. Number of streams [10] |

Press Enter if you do not want to apply the changes now.
|
We now need to modify the /etc/system
configuration file on this computer. It is done to make sure that there
will be enough shared memory and semaphores available for
Calypso programs. 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.

Press Enter. You will see this message if you have accepted the default answer and pressed Enter in step 20. |
Although a ’no’ answer can be selected
to this question during install, the user should make sure the min
requirements (below) for shared memory are met, otherwise the backups
may fail (the message in logs is ’could not start the pipeline’).

Type a network TCP port number for the Communications Service (CVD) and
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] |

Commcell Level Global
Filters are set through Calypso GUI's Control Panel in order
to filter out certain directories or files from backup Commcell-widely.
If you turn on the Global filters, they will be effective to the default
subclient. There are three options you can choose to set the filters. 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] |

If you have not created a storage policy, this message will be displayed. You may not be prompted for user input.
|
There
seem to be no Storage Policies configured on the CommServe. Before you can run any backups of this IDA, you will need to install a MediaAgent,
create a Storage Policy and assign it to all subclients.. Adjusting modes and permissions of files Successfully installed Calypso |

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] |
