Installing and Uninstalling Arcserve RHA › Install the Engine

Install the Engine

The Arcserve RHA installation bundle consists of packages for all supported platforms and a common installation script.

To install the Engine

1. Become "superuser" (root).
2. Change the working directory to the directory that contains installation files.
3. Run the install.sh script.
4. Follow the instructions until the end of the installation.

   You are prompted to accept the license agreement and asked if you want to create Arcserve RHA group and enable Oracle support.

   Notes:

   • If you decide to enable Oracle support, you must provide the Oracle Owner, Oracle Home path, and Oracle Base path. The Oracle Owner user is required first and then the product retrieves the Home path and Base path through the Oracle Owner user environment. If the Home path and Base path cannot be found, then you must manually add them. If your Oracle server is installed without the 32-bit Oracle client library, then you must also provide the Oracle Instant Client path.
   • If the Arcserve RHA package has been installed, you are prompted to reinstall it.
   • To allow non-root users to manage scenarios, you must create the "caarha" group on your machine and ensure the group works with the supplementary group.
