Installing TAOS ITP on Linux
Caution:
TAOS ITP must be used with a software package
that provides a Shared Storage Option (SSO) type
arbitration between machines that backup to the library. If
you do not have an SSO type option, the only valid
configuration is one computer per library. Without an SSO
type option, data loss is likely.
The TAOS ITP driver for Linux is currently released in RPM format only.
There are pre-compiled binaries (uniprocessor only at this time) built for
the following i386 based platforms:
RedHat Linux 6.2
RedHat Linux 7.1
To install the TAOS ITP driver for Linux:
1.
Navigate to the Linux directory on the CD-ROM disk.
2.
Based on the revision of the operating system, select the binary RPM
appropriate for the system you want to install.
3.
Issue the following command at a shell prompt:
rpm –Uvh
<appropriate binary RPM>
4.
To return a list of libraries on the network available for use, issue the
following:
/usr/sbin/TAOSdiscover
5.
Enter
y
to install and configure TAOS enabled devices.
TAOSdiscover searches for TAOS enabled devices and lists each device’s
target components.
6.
Enter a listed device number for a device you want to install drivers
for.
7.
Enter the target number for all targets of this device you will want
access to, or just tap Enter to select all target numbers.
8.
Repeat Step 8 and Step 9 for each device you want installed.
To remove a device, re-enter it. You will then be asked if you want to
remove the device.
