Symptoms
When installing the AVE Client package, a failure error occurs when a Client hostname is longer than 63 characters.
The following error is logged:
"1" Client installation could not complete successfully because the hostname contains more than 63 characters.Cause
This is a known Avamar Administrator limitation documented in the Avamar v7.5.1 Release Notes (Page 9, reference 290306).
Resolution
To work around this issue, ensure that the hostname does not contain more than 63 characters.
This can be done by adding the correct hostnames to the local hosts files of the AVE and client before completing the installation.
