How to Apply Patch with RHEL7 and RHEL6 Support

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7

The following steps are required as the install script is modified to help proceed with the Linux client agent installation on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 (RHEL7):

1. Copy the test fix file to a temporary directory and then untar as follows:
   • mkdir /tmp/RO75449; Copy the provided tar file to this path.
   • cd /tmp/RO75449;
   • tar -zxvf RO75449.tar.Z
2. Perform the following steps to replace the install script:
   1. Mount Arcserve Backup r16.5 SP1 media - mount /dev/cdrom /mnt.
   2. mkdir /tmpfolder
   3. cp -r /mnt/DataMoverandAgent/* /tmpfolder
   4. cd /tmpfolder/Linux
   5. rm install
   6. cp /tmp/RO75449/install /tmpfolder/Linux
   7. chmod +x install

Proceed with the agent installation and when the installation is complete, perform the following steps:

1. Shut down the Arcserve Backup Linux client agent: uagent stop.
2. Copy the following fix files:
   • cp /tmp/RO75449/fs.cntl /opt/CA/ABuagent/fs.cntl
   • cp /tmp/RO75449/caagent_autostrstop /opt/CA/ABcmagt/

     When caagent_autostrstop is copied, run the following command for automatic startup:

     • cd /opt/CA/ABcmagt
     • ./caagent_autostrstop - Select "Yes" when prompted.
   • cp /tmp/RO75449/uagentd /opt/CA/ABuagent/

     When uagentd is copied, run the following command to grant sufficient permissions to the uagentd binary:

     • chmod +x uagentd
3. Start the Arcserve Backup Linux client agent: uagent start.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6

The following steps are required on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 (RHEL6):

1. Copy the test fix file to a temporary directory and then untar as follows:
   • mkdir /tmp/RO75449; Copy the provided tar file to this path.
   • cd /tmp/RO75449;
   • tar -zxvf RO75449.tar.Z

Proceed with the agent installation and when the installation is complete, perform the following steps:

1. Shut down the Arcserve Backup Linux client agent: uagent stop.
2. Copy the following fix files:
   • cp /tmp/RO75449/fs.cntl /opt/CA/ABuagent/fs.cntl
   • cp /tmp/RO75449/uagentd /opt/CA/ABuagent/

     When uagentd is copied, run the following command to grant sufficient permissions to the uagentd binary:

     • chmod +x uagentd
3. Start the Arcserve Backup Linux client agent: uagent start.
