Installing the Remote DS-VDR Tool


Installation is supported on the following Linux Operating Systems:

The Remote DS-VDR Tool is a separate installation that can be found on the release DVD in the folder: \Software\Tools\Remote_DS-VDR\Linux_64_bit

1. You must login as 'root' to install the Remote DS-VDR Tool.

2. Copy the rpm package to the target computer or run it from the installation DVD using the command:

rpm -i remote_ds-vdr-12.0.0.0-linux.x86_64.rpm

3. The Remote DS-VDR Tool will be installed on the target machine in the following folder: /opt/CloudBackup/Remote_DS-VDR/

4. Once the Remote DS-VDR Tool is installed on the target machine, it will run as a daemon (service) and start automatically when the machine is rebooted.

The command for uninstall is

rpm -e remote_ds-vdr-12.0.0.0-linux

The service can be started / stopped / restarted / and the status viewed with the following commands:

/etc/init.d/remote_ds_vdr.sh start
/etc/init.d/remote_ds_vdr.sh stop
/etc/init.d/remote_ds_vdr.sh restart
/etc/init.d/remote_ds_vdr.sh status

The command for Upgrade is:

rpm -U remote_ds-vdr-12.0.0.0-linux.x86_64.rpm
Note: The upgrade command is used when higher rpm packages are released (e.g. 12.1.3.2). Use this command on a target machine where a Remote DS-VDR Tool is already installed.
