Installing the RDA with OST Plug-In for NetBackup on Linux
This topic describes how to install the RDA with OST plug-in on a media server running the supported Red Hat Enterprise
Linux or SUSE Linux server operating system software (using the NetBackup DMA).
Ensure that you have downloaded the RDA with OST plug-in installer into the correct directory on the designated media
server. The plug-in installer is saved as DellOSTPlugin-xxxxx-x86_64.bin.gz, where xxxxx represents its build number.
1. Unzip the RDA with OST plug-in installer file using the following command:
$> /bin/gunzip DellOSTPlugin-xxxxx-x86_64.bin.gz
2. Configure the executable bit on the plug-in installer using the following command:
$> /bin/chmod a+x DellOSTPlugin-xxxxx-x86_64.bin
3. Stop the NetBackup nbrmms service before using the -install option.
The plug-in installer returns an error if the NetBackup nbrmms service is running when attempting to install the
plug-in.
4. Run the plug-in installer using the -install option, and install the plug-in using the following command:
$> ./DellOSTPlugin-xxxxx-x86_64.bin -install
NOTE: The location for installing the plug-in is not user-configurable.
5. After the RDA with OST plug-in installer has stopped running, and the system prompt returns, verify that the plug-in
has loaded properly by checking the output using the following NetBackup command on the Linux media server:
$> /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpstsinfo -plugininfo
This NetBackup command lists the plug-in details as shown:
• Plug-In Name: libstspiDellMT.so
• Prefix: DELL
• Label: Dell OpenStorage (OST) Plug-in
• Build Version: 10
• Build Version Minor: 1
• Operating Version: 10
• Vendor Version: (EAR-2.0.0) Build: 41640
6. Retain the plug-in installer on the media server so you can use it if needed to uninstall the plug-in.
Uninstalling the RDA with OST Plug-In for Linux
Use the following process if you need to uninstall the RDA with OST plug-in from a Linux-based media server:
1. Stop the NetBackup nbrmms service before using the -uninstall option.
(The plug-in installer returns an error if the NetBackup nbrmms service is running when attempting to uninstall the
OST plug-in.)
2. Run the RDA with OST plug-in installer with the -uninstall option, which uninstalls the plug-in, using the following
command:
$> ./DellOSTPlugin-xxxxx-x86_64.bin -uninstall
3. Check that the plug-in is uninstalled by using the following NetBackup command on the Linux media server:
$> /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpstsinfo -plugininfo
NOTE: If the -pluginfo command returns any plug-in details, this means that the plug-in has not been
uninstalled.
4. Retain the plug-in installer on the media server in case you need to use it to reinstall the plug-in.
