Linux Access Node Support for Amazon Web Services

You can configure a Linux instance to act as an access node for replication operations.

Requirements

• One of the following AWS instance types:

  • CentOS 7.4

  • RHEL 7.5

  • Amazon Linux instance using a 64-bit Arm processor

• Mono

• Commvault Virtual Server Agent package

• If you use an on-premises deployment of the CommServe system, configure a firewall as described in Configuring a Firewall to Install the Virtual Server Agent on a Cloud VM or Instance before you deploy the Linux access node.

Deployment Options

• From AWS Marketplace AMI, you can deploy the Commvault Cloud Access Node BYOL to serve as a Linux access node and as a File Recovery Enabler for Linux. This AMI contains all of the components that are required to support Linux operations in the Commvault environment. For more information, see Deploying a Commvault Linux MediaAgent from AWS.

• On a CentOS instance, install Commvault Virtual Server Agent and MediaAgent packages.
