Verify that your environment meets the system requirements for Dell EMC Isilon archiving.
The File System Core and File System packages are installed on a computer that acts as a proxy computer or data access node. The proxy computer sends the recall requests to the NAS file server.
You can recall stubs by using either File Share Archiver Client or the Driver for File Archiver. The recall drivers can be installed on the same client computer as the file system agent.
Note
To back up and restore data in an IPv6 environment, see Configuring IPv6 for OnePass and CommCell Network Internet Protocol Requirements.

Software That Is Automatically Installed.NET Framework
On most versions of Windows, the .NET Framework 4.7 is automatically installed.
Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2017
Starting with Service Pack 18, Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2017 (vcredist2017.exe) is automatically installed.
If a computer does not have the most recent Windows updates, the installation of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2017 will fail in installing Universal C Runtime. The following Windows updates must be installed to prevent the installation failure. The updates are not required on the most recent Windows operating system versions, such as Microsoft Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016, because these versions have the Universal C Runtime already installed.
