PowerProtect Data Manager 19.14 File System User Guide

Install the File System agent on Linux in silent mode

On Linux, review the following commands to perform a silent installation of the File System agent.

NOTE:The --server option is used to specify the PowerProtect Data Manager server IP for registration, and is mandatory for silent install.

To verify the authenticity and integrity of the RPM files prior to the installation step, follow the instructions in the PowerProtect Data Manager Security Configuration Guide.

Use the following commands to perform a silent installation on Linux:

  • For silent installation, including registration of the agent with the PowerProtect Data Manager server, type: install.sh --silent-install --server=<PowerProtect_Data_Manager_server_IP>
  • To run the installer in debug mode during silent installation, type: install.sh --debug --silent-install --server=<PowerProtect_Data_Manager_server_IP>
  • To skip installation of the block-based backup driver, type: install.sh --skip-driver --silent-install --server=<PowerProtect_Data_Manager_server_IP>.
  • To specify the FQDN, IPv4 address, or IPv6 address of the File system agent host to be registered, and the port to be used for communication between the agent and PowerProtect Data Manager, type: install.sh --silent-install --server=<PowerProtect_Data_Manager_server_IP> --preferred-address=<agent_host_FQDN_or_IP> --client-port=<port_number>
    NOTE:The port number must be from the supported port ranges 7000 to 7009 and 7012 to 7020. If you do not specify a port number, the default port 7000 is used as the communication port. The ports 7010 and 7011 are used by the agent service message bus.
  • To enable the PowerProtect Data Manager communication TCP port, run the /opt/dpsapps/agentsvc/configfw.sh script as the root user.
