Solaris
Important
-
On Solaris computers, the operating system must be installed with at least the user level software option selected.
-
Install the file archiver agent on the global zone. You cannot install the file archiver agent on a non-global zone. However, you can use the global instance of the file archiver agent to archive data on a non-global zone. For a comprehensive list of supported components, see UNIX Virtualization.
