EMC CLARiiON 300002039 - Manual (Page 42)

Installing and removing the Admsnap Utility
EMC strongly recommends that you install admsnap on all servers
connected to a storage system that has the SnapView driver installed.
Important: If you are upgrading your storage system to FLARE OE
version 02.19.xxx.5.yyy or later, you must upgrade admsnap to version
2.9.x or later. Before you upgrade FLARE, verify that your operating
system version supports admsnap version 2.9.x or later. Refer to the
Admsnap Release Notes or the EMC Support Matrix on Powerlink.
Note : For the supported versions of these operating systems, see the Admsnap
Release Notes.
Installation prerequisites
Before you can install and use the Admsnap Utility, you must:
Š Install SnapView on a supported CLARiiON storage system. For
a list of supported storage systems, refer to the release notes for
SnapView and admsnap.
Š Enable data access control on the same CLARiiON storage system.
Installing the Admsnap Utility on a Solaris server
EMC recommends that you install the most recent version of the
Admsnap Utility software that is appropriate for your configuration.
You can download the most recent version from either the software
download page on the Powerlink website (CX3–series and CX-series) or
on the support website (AX-series storage systems). You can also install
the software from the server support CD (any storage system); however,
the CD may not contain the most recent version for your configuration.
1. Log in to the Solaris server as a superuser, such as root.
2. If a previous revision is installed, remove it as described in Removing
the Admsnap Utility on a Solaris server, page 45.
3. To download the software for CX3–series or CX-series storage
systems, do the following:
