Omniback in Redhat 7.2

[castro_2]

I want to install omniback client in Redhat 7.2 remote. What are the steps.
Thanks

Have you tried actually *doing* it? I realize this message is rather old so I'll be brief - if you're still having trouble though respond and I'll try to help.

If you're using omniback4, the instructions in the manual should work - but you have to get rlogin working from the main server to the linux client system - only needed during the install.

Getting rlogin working under redhat7.2 is a pain - there are probably docs somewhere I missed, but I worked it out the hard way.

- Make sure the rlogin daemon is installed - the package from redhat is rsh-server-0.17-5.rpm.

- Make sure it's not disabled in /etc/xinetd.d/rlogin

- Update /etc/securetty as needed.

- Update the files in /etc/pam.d as needed.

If You cannot as the Trever says, Do it Locally with the next procedure. First install and configure the cell manager
In linux /etc/hosts must contain IP address and name of the cell manager, and the server with the backup unit, if other than cell manager.

In linux client
Insert CD omniback II (HP-UX), mount it

# mount /mnt/cdrom
Create /usr/omni and /tmp/omni_tmp dirs
# mkdir /usr/omni
# mkdir /tmp/omni_tmp
copy utils.tar file from CD to /tmp/omni_tmp

# cp /mnt/cdrom/omniback-ii/omni-core-is/opt/omni/databases/utils/gpl/i386/linux-60/utils.tar /tmp/omni_tmp
Uncompress utils.tar file
# cd /tmp/omni_tmp

# gunzip ???d ???S .tar utils.tar

Extract with tar, this create the files /tmp/omni_tmp, omni_chk_ds.sh, omni_vers.sh, omni_de-inst.sh and omni_rinst.sh

# tar xvf utils

Install ???core??? copying packet.z file from CD to dir /tmp/omni_tmp

# cp /mnt/cdrom/omniback-ii/omni-core-is/opt/omni/databases/vendor/omnicf/gpl/i386/linux-60/a.04.10/packet.z /tmp/omni_tmp
Uncompress and change the name
# gunzip ???S .z packet.z
# mv packet.z packet.Z
# ./omni_rinst.sh /mtp/omni_tmp/packet.Z co a.04.10 gpl/i386/linux-60 /usr/omni cel_server_name
This shell erase packet.Z file from /tmp/tmp_omni and make the nececesary files under /usr/omni, also, display a message, like,

Warning: Update of the omni_info file failes for co!
Omniback II software package successfully installed !

Then install disc agent

# cp /mnt/cdrom/omniback-ii/omni-othux-p/opt/omni/databases/vendor/da/gpl/i386/a.04.10/packet.z /tmp/omni_tmp
Uncompress and change the name
# gunzip ???S .z packet.z
# mv packet.z packet.Z
# ./omni_rinst.sh /mtp/omni_tmp/packet.Z da a.04.10 gpl/i386/linux-60 /usr/omni cell_server_name

This shell erase packet.Z file from /tmp/tmp_omni and make the nececesary files under /usr/omni, also, display a message, like,

Omniback II software package successfully installed !

Finally, install the media agent, if the server linux have a backup unit and you wish use it

# cp /mnt/cdrom/omniback-ii/omni-othux-p/opt/omni/databases/vendor/ma/gpl/i386/a.04.10/packet.z /tmp/omni_tmp
Uncompress and change the name
# gunzip ???S .z packet.z
# mv packet.z packet.Z
# ./omni_rinst.sh /mtp/omni_tmp/packet.Z ma a.04.10 gpl/i386/linux-60 /usr/omni nombre_del_cell_server

This shell erase packet.Z file from /tmp/tmp_omni and make the nececesary files under /usr/omni, also, display a message, like,

Omniback II software package successfully installed !

In the Cell Manager import the client by IP Address.
