1.3 Install the Manager key

You can install the key for the backup manager with the following command:

serverbackup-setup --get-key https://Manager_URL

...

2. Install Agent Manually (Using RPM)

...

Most Linux distributions come with the unzip utility pre-installed. To determine if you have the unzip utility, run: 


# which unzip

 


This should return an output similar to the following: 


# which unzip /usr/bin/unzip

...


If it returns the following output, you need to install the unzip utility first: 


unzip: Command not found.

...


To install unzip on RHE, CentOS, and Fedora: 


# yum install unzip

...


2.3 Extract the ZIP File

We recommend creating a temporary directory to which you can extract the contents of the ZIP file.

1. Use the mkdir command to create a temporary directory (in our case, cdp-agent). 


# mkdir cdp-agent

 


2. Use the mv command to move the archive to that directory. Note that Linux file names are case sensitive. Make sure you type the name correctly (in our case, "r1soft-enterprise-agent-linux64-3.18.2.zip").

 


# mv r1soft-enterprise-agent-linux64-3.18.2.zip cdp-agent

 


3. Use the cd command to go to that directory. 


# cd cdp-agent

 


4. Use the unzip command to extract the files.

 


# unzip r1soft-enterprise-agent-linux64-3.18.2.zip

Notice
You must be a Linux root user to install CDP Agent.
 


The archive you have extracted contains two folders: one with .deb packages (in our case, "deb-linux64") and one with .rpm packages ("rpm-linux64"). On RedHat and CentOS, select the .rpm package.
