Tivoli Storage Manager for UNIX Backup-Archive Clients Installation and User's Guide

Installing the Solaris Clients

Attention

For current installation and configuration information for the Tivoli Storage Manager program product, refer to the README file that is shipped on the product installation media. For current information concerning Tivoli Storage Manager, supported platforms, and documentation, refer to the Web site at: http://www.tivoli.com/support/storage_mgr/tivolimain.html

The following installation packages in Solaris packaging format are available on the CD:

tsmcli/solaris/TIVsmCba.pkg
Contains the backup-archive client (command-line and GUI), the administrative client (command-line), and the Web client.

tsmcli/solaris/TIVsmCapi.pkg
Contains the API, shared libraries, and samples.

tsmcli/solaris/TivsmCdoc.pkg
Contains the documentation.

To remove previous versions of Tivoli Storage Manager, log in as root and enter:

pkgrm TIVsmCba TIVsmCapi TIVsmCdoc TIVsmChsm
Note:
TIVsmCapi cannot be uninstalled until the TIVsmCba is removed because the backup-archive client needs the API for Raw Logical Volume backup.

For older ADSM versions, enter:

pkgrm IBMadsm-w IBMadsm-c IBMadsm-a IBMadsm-h

Use the following procedure to install the Tivoli Storage Manager clients:

  1. Log in as the root user and mount the CD-ROM to /cdrom.
  2. Enter the following command and include the package name. For example, to install the backup-archive client, enter:
       pkgadd -d /cdrom/tsmcli/solaris/TIVsmCapi.pkg TIVsmCapi
       pkgadd -d /cdrom/tsmcli/solaris/TIVsmCba.pkg TIVsmCba
    
    Note:
    The Backup-archive client needs the API for Raw Logical Volume backup, so the API must be installed before the client.
  3. If you want to install the documentation, enter:
       pkgadd -d /cdrom/tsmcli/solaris/TIVsmCdoc.pkg TIVsmCdoc
    
  4. Answer Yes (y) to all questions during installation.
Note:
To display the Tivoli Storage Manager help browser menus in your locale language, ensure the NLSPATH environment variable in the /etc/profile file contains the following path:
   /usr/dt/lib/nls/msg/%L/%N.cat
