Description

Cristie Bare Machine Recovery (CBMR) for Linux can recover a Linux machine in the event of a disaster. It is possible to recover to the same or dissimilar hardware. It can backup to tape drives, file locations, Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) and cascaded locations. Extra modules are available to support tape libraries and autochangers, and Cristie Storage Manager (CSM) location. Command line and GUI interfaces are available. Backups can be taken periodically along with configuration information which includes details of hard disks, network interfaces, etc. This quick start guide shows the user how to configure backup locations, save configuration, backup and recover a Linux machine using CBMR. More detailed information is available from man pages for the CBMR components.

System Requirements

CBMR for Linux can be installed on a x86, x86_64 or PPC Linux machine with glibc >= 2.2. If using TSM, the system should have TSM API client version >= 5.1 already installed. Recovery requires at least 128MB RAM.

Installation

Installation files may be downloaded from Cristie website at or can be found in the linux/install directory on the CBMR CDROM. There are 2 available versions to support newer and older Linux distributions. The main installation files are contained in the

linux/install/main directory and the installation files for older distributions are contained in

linux/install/compat. There are readme.txt files in both directories explaining which common distributions are supported by which files.

If the system supports Redhat Package Manager (RPM), this is the simplest way to install CBMR. To install from an RPM package:

rpm -i cbmr-xxx.xxx.rpm

To uninstall the RPM package, use

rpm -e cbmr

If RPM is not available, the gzipped tar file may be installed as follows:

Copy the installation file to a temporary directory.

tar xvzf cbmr-xxx.linux.xxx.tar.gz

cd cbmr

./install

This will install all the relevant files and licences. To uninstall the package, use the install script with -u option.

CBMR is installed with a 30 day trial licence. To extend this licence, contact Cristie at

cbmr@.
