Installing the Enterprise Vault server software
This section describes how to install the Enterprise Vault server software when the servers that run Enterprise Vault tasks are part of a Windows Server failover cluster.
Note that Enterprise Vault does not support high-availability upgrades. You must install the server software on all nodes in the cluster before you start Enterprise Vault services or run the configuration wizard.
To prepare to upgrade the Enterprise Vault server software
- Log on to the active node as the Vault Service account.
- Use Failover Cluster Manager or the command-line utility cluster to take the Admin service resource offline. This takes all the Enterprise Vault services offline.
Note the following important points:
Do not take the EnterpriseVaultServerInstance offline.
You must stop all Enterprise Vault services in the Enterprise Vault site. For example, stop the services on non-clustered servers, such as an Enterprise Vault Domino Gateway.
If you install on an Enterprise Vault Domino Gateway, make sure that the Domino server on the Enterprise Vault Domino Gateway is shut down and that
EVInstall.nsfis not accessed locally.If there are multiple sites that share the Enterprise Vault Directory, you must also stop all Enterprise Vault services in the other sites.
Stop any other local or remote services or applications that can lock Enterprise Vault files. Use Failover Cluster Manager to stop clustered services. For example:
Enterprise Vault Administration Console
Enterprise Vault Accelerator Manager service
- Close any applications that may be running on the server, including the Control Panel, Computer Management, Windows Services, and the Windows Event Viewer.
To use the wizard to install Enterprise Vault
- Load the Enterprise Vault media.
- If Windows AutoPlay is enabled on the server, Windows shows an AutoPlay dialog box. Click Run Setup.exe.
If AutoPlay is not enabled, use Windows Explorer to open the root folder of the installation media and then double-click the file
Setup.exe. - In the list in the left pane of the Veritas Enterprise Vault Install Launcher window, click Enterprise Vault.
- Click Server Installation.
- In the right pane, click Upgrade existing server.
- Click Install. The Enterprise Vault installation wizard starts.
- Work through the installation wizard to upgrade the Enterprise Vault components.
- If the installation wizard prompts you to restart the server, restart and then log on again as the Vault Service account so that the installer can complete the upgrade.
- Install the Enterprise Vault software on the other servers in your Enterprise Vault environment, including any cluster failover nodes.
The following procedure describes how to upgrade the Enterprise Vault installation. If you want to add or remove components, see the "Installing Enterprise Vault" chapter in the Installing and Configuring guide for a complete description of the command-line options.
Caution:
If a system restart is needed during silent installation, the server restarts automatically. If the server restarts, log on again as the Vault Service account so that the installer can complete the upgrade.
To install Enterprise Vault from the command line
- Log on to the active node as the Vault Service account.
- Load the Enterprise Vault media.
- If Windows AutoPlay is enabled on the server, Windows shows an AutoPlay dialog box. Close the AutoPlay dialog box.
- Open a command prompt window and navigate to the following folder on the Enterprise Vault media:
\Veritas Enterprise Vault\Server\x64 - Run setup (x64).exe as follows:
start /wait "" "setup (x64).exe" /s /clone_wait /v"COMPONENTS=Option[|Option][...]"
- If the server restarts, log on again as the Vault Service account so that the installer can complete the upgrade.
- When the installation is complete, the installer re-enables the Enterprise Vault services. Do not start any Enterprise Vault services at this time.
- Install the Enterprise Vault software on the other servers in your Enterprise Vault environment, including any cluster failover nodes.
