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):

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

Perform the following steps to replace the install script:

Mount Arcserve Backup r16.5 SP1 media - mount /dev/cdrom /mnt.

mkdir /tmpfolder

cp -r /mnt/DataMoverandAgent/* /tmpfolder

cd /tmpfolder/Linux

rm install

cp /tmp/RO75449/install /tmpfolder/Linux

chmod +x install

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

Shut down the Arcserve Backup Linux client agent: uagent stop.

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

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):

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:

Shut down the Arcserve Backup Linux client agent: uagent stop.

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

Start the Arcserve Backup Linux client agent: uagent start.
