Solaris install The pbx_exchange daemon issue

I'm concerned you may have an incomplete package.  Does /var/strg/NetBackup_7.1_CLIENTS/NBClients/anb/Clients/usr/openv/netbackup/client/Solaris/Solaris9/NB-Java.tar.gz exist? 

(DISCLAIMER: I am hopeful I gave you the correct path)

EDIT: With all due respect, do you know any Solaris sysadmins who might be able to help you?

Lets get back to basics!

For a Client installation, you need NetBackup_7.1_CLIENTS.tar.gz.

So, to uncompress and extract, you can do it all in on go:

gzcat NetBackup_7.1_CLIENTS.tar.gz | /usr/sfw/bin/gtar -xvf  - 

Thanks  CRZ, Marianne,

 

We had the clients file on another server and I am now trying to use it. It's the 7.5 client version from the files below what command should I do to extact the Sun Solaris client?

 

NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS      NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS.tar

 

What we usually use it just the two files below (they are extracted to make things simpler and I'm not the one who normally does that part)

SolarisSPARCtar  NBU71_SUN.tar

 

Thanks

 

 

Please show us output of 'ls -l'.

If NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS is a folder, then the files have already been extracted.

If you don't know if gtar was used to extract the files, then it is best to remove this folder and extract again with gtar:

# rm -r NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS 

# /usr/sfw/bin/gtar -xvf NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS.tar

# cd NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS

# ./install

 

Marianne,

 

I did the command however it got and error during the extract (see below)

/usr/sfw/bin/gtar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

It didn't fully complete the extract, I thinking it may be a space issue? not enough

 

, Thanks

 

Update: capacity is only 44% so it shouldn't be a space issue.

 

 

 

 

Unexpected EOF on archive file 

Once again back to basics... Have you done a checksum on each one of the 3 downloads?
And again once you've merged them? 

Details on the FileConnect download page. 
README is this file on FileConnect: NetBackup-OpsCenter-7.5_Download_README.txt
 

I believe the new file  (NBU75_SUN.tar.gz ) is good, however I am not back to getting the original error. (below)

There should be some way to just start (or install) the The pbx_exchange daemon

Extract from my previous post:

 Have you done a checksum on each one of the 3 downloads?
And again once you've merged them? 

There should be some way to just start (or install) the The pbx_exchange daemon

There is.  Try:

# /opt/VRTSpbx/bin/vxpbx_exchanged start

Does this work? 

If it DOES work, can you try the installation again?

If it DOESN'T work, what error(s) are you getting?

Just for grins, could you give us output from ls -l on your unzipped NBU75_SUN.tar so we can make sure it's close to the right size?

CRZ   Thanks,

I tried that command, however It didn’t work
