To install the ZMC, you must first download Amanda Enterprise Edition with the Zmanda Management Console. Packages for all Zmanda products are available from the Zmanda network downloads page. The Amanda Enterprise Edition with ZMC package includes:
- Amanda Enterprise Server
- Zmanda Linux or Solaris Client for the server
- The Zmanda Management Console
- all of the dependencies for Zmanda Management Console.
Note that browser access to the ZMC requires Internet Explorer 8 or greater on Windows and Firefox 3.5 or greater on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. Other browsers may work, but are not exhaustively tested.
If you are installing Amanda Enterprise 3.x on the same machine as a Zmanda Recovery Manager for MySQL server, you must restart the ZRM processes as described here.
Upgrading backup server from Amanda enterprise 3.0
To upgrade from Amanda enterprise version 3.0, you must uninstall the old installation and run the version 3.1 installer. Uninstalling the old release while saving the configuration files is the only way to preserve the backup sets you created in the old release; Amanda Enterprise 3.1 cannot directly process backup sets created in older versions of the product. This upgrade procedure only migrates backup set configurations created with the Zmanda Management Console. If you have manually edited Amanda configuration files that need to be preserved, please contact the Zmanda Support Team for assistance.
Installing Amanda Enterprise on the Same Server as Zmanda Recovery Manager for MySQL 3.1
After you have used the Rapid Installer (see below) to successfully install Amanda Enterprise 3.1, there are two additional steps to make such an installation work:
- Please make sure ZRM backup or recovery is not in progress during this procedure.
- Become root and enter the following commands at the operating system prompt:
/etc/init.d/zmc_aee stop
/etc/init.d/zmc_zrm stop
/etc/init.d/zmc_aee start
/etc/init.d/zmc_zrm start
- Still as root, run the following commands and examine the output to make sure that all services are up and running:
/etc/init.d/zmc_zrm status
/etc/init.d/zmc_aee status
