Installing RAMS MAC OS X 10.6 64bit

[Magnus_Nystr_m]

Hi

I have bought the agent for MAC but am not able to install it.

what is the support for running remote agent for Macintosh on Mac OS X 10.6 in 64bit mode? And what does Symantec rekommend us to do?

This site describes my problem

http://mergy.org/tag/installrams-on-10-6/

My server is running Windows 2008 R2 with Backup exec 2010 R2,
Have the 2010 RTM DVD on the MAC and followed the install instructions here http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/306199.htm

From the installrams script

# If we are running on a Mac Intel machine
        # we need to launch the RALUSx86 RAMS installer
        if [ $HDWR_TYPE = "i386" ] ; then
            if [ -e "./RALUSx86/installrams" ] ; then
                cd ./RALUSx86
                ./installrams $*
            else
                echo "ERROR: Unable to launch Mac Intel installer."
            fi
            exit 0;
        fi

        echo "Not Supported."
        exit 1;
                ;;
    *)
        echo "Not Supported."
        exit 1;
        ;;
esac

Can you switch the run mode to 32bit for the install?

Here is the doc from Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3773

After the install, you can reboot into 64 bit mode as  required.

Yes I can but will it run stable when i switch back to 64bit? What is Symantec rekommending?

As per the compatibility list , it is listed in there, so it has been tested and should work fine .!!!
