ADS setup

Hi everyone!

I'm new to Avamar. Trying to set up ADS Gen3 demo equipment.

According to the system  installation manual for Avamar  DataStore Gen3 I need to get "application software customer tarball" and copy it to Avamar. Where can  i find it? Certain passwords and passphrases are mentioned in this  document as well. For example for root and admin which are defaults I  believe, but again I don't know them and I don't know where to find  them. Sorry for stupid question.

    There are no stupid questions

    you can use this installation. It's not demo but full funconality Avamar version which works fine without license (30 days)

    ftp://avamar_ftp:anonymous@ftp.avamar.com/software/5.0.2/v5.0.2.41-customer_unified-v5.0.105.169.tar.gzanonymous@ftp.avamar.com/software/5.0.2/v5.0.2.41-customer_unified-v5.0.105.169.tar.gz

    Thanks for your reply! Already started to download.

    But what about passwords? Why do they say in docs to use root, admin, etc accounts during install but do not specify default passwords. In case of use ADS OS is already preinstalled. How do I know passwords? I've studied installation guides for several versions of avamar and didn't found an info. Should I know this information from any ather source? In this case password "changeme" works for root, but this just goo guess.

    There are different accounts in Avamar world .
    for example:  root, admin, dpn

    for dpn and admin you use su as root (su - admin), then load the keys ...
      # ssh-agent bash
      # ssh-add ~admin/.ssh/admin_key

    you will find it in documentation ... admin guide ...

    there is also account with different pwl for replication or "viewuser" to make some sql custom queries ...

    Download the security guide from Powerlink Documents for Avamar.(Or search for 300-008-816 in powerlink). It has default passwords.

    I managed to download the files I needed 1.8GB and 1.3GB which need to be merged. I copied the files to the Avamar Node and when a try to merge them into 1 tarball which is needed, I get this message. Anyone with some suggestions on the way forward. I would really appreciate you help.

    [root@sacr-avamar ~]#
    [root@sacr-avamar ~]# cd /emctmp/tarball
    [root@sacr-avamar tarball]# cat v5.0.2.41-customer_unified-v5.0.105.169.part0*.bin > v5.0.2.41-customer_unified-v5.0.105.169.tar.gz
    cat: write error: No space left on device
    [root@sacr-avamar tarball]# cd /usr/local/avamar/src

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Nyembe,

    I guess the path you are using (/emctmp/tarball) is under your root partition which does not have so much space.

    Please move the files to /usr/local/avamar/src/ and try again.

    Hope this would be helpful.

    Regards,

    Sean Xu
