Unattended Installation of the CommServe Software for CommServe LiveSync in a Linux Environment

Unattended installation can be used to setup multiple CommServe LiveSync setup by recording the installation sequence once and playing it back to setup additional production and standby CommServe LiveSync hosts.

Before You Begin

• Create a custom package using the sequence described in Creating a Custom Package.

• The custom package must be played back in a server that does not have any other Commvault packages or instances installed in it.

Installing the Production CommServe Host

1. Copy the custom package to the server in which you plan to setup another production CommServe host.

2. Navigate to the location in which the custom package is copied, and install the package in the silent mode using the following command:

   ./silent_install -pkgids 1020,1023,1135,1118,1174,1136,1602,1604,1024 -saPassword $[password] -cvidPassword $[CVID_password] -recommend
   

   You can monitor the installation from the install.log file in the %allusersprofile%\Commvault Systems\Galaxy\LogFiles folder.

   For a list of installer error codes, see Installer Error Codes.

3. Update the CommCell Administrator password as CommServe is installed using an empty password.

   For more information about updating the CommCell Administrator password, see Changing the CommCell Administrator Password.

Installing the Standby CommServe Host

1. Verify that the production CommServe host installation is successfully completed before installing the standby CommServe host.

2. Copy the custom package to the server in which you plan to setup a standby CommServe host.

3. Navigate to the location where the custom package was copied, and install the packages in the silent mode using the following command:

   ./silent_install -pkgids 1020,1023,1135,1118,1174,1136,1602,1604,1024 -saPassword $[password] -cvidPassword $[CVID_password] -recommend -failovernodetype 1 -cshost $[IP_address] -commcelluser $[user_name] -commcellpassword $[CommCell_password]
   

   Where:

   • <password> is the sa user password.

   • <CVID_password> is the CVID password.

   • <IP_address> is the IP address of the standby CommServe host.

   • <user_name> is the username of the CommCell user.

   • <CommCell_password> is the password of the CommCell user.
