Installing client type software on a master server
Client type software must be installed on the master server to perform the following operations:
Assign clients to NetBackup policies so that those clients can be backed up.
Install (or push) client software from the master server to clients.
For each UNIX client type, the client installation script lets you install the client software onto the master server. You can then install (or push) the client software from the master server to the clients.
To install client type software on a master server
- Log in to the server as root.
- Use one of the following methods to start the installation script:
DVD
Insert the NetBackup UNIX Clients DVD into the drive.
If necessary, mount the DVD.
Enter the following command:
dvd_directory/install
The dvd_directory is the path to the directory where you can access the DVD.
ESD images (downloaded files)
Navigate to the location where the installation images reside.
Enter the following command:
./install
- When the following message appears, press Enter to continue:
