netbackup client on Linux X86_64

[wesa]

Hi! Can someone give me instructions on how to install NetBackup client (v6) on a Linux x86_64? I could only find 32bit and IA64. Thanks in advance.

[Peter_Jakobs]

You have to use the 32bit client.

For doing this you also have to install some 32 bit lib's

(eg for debian apt-get install libstdc++6 (for netbackup client 6.5.1) and for Ubuntu apt-get install ia32-libs)

EDIT:

I've now installed lib32-gcc-libs and run LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/lib32/usr/lib/:/opt/lib32/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"

Now i get:

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpcd: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

----------------

Thank you for info.

My distro is Arch linux. The package gcc-libs is installed and /usr/lib/stdc++.so.6 exist.

When running;

It gives me;

Any ide?

You're missing some libs

with ldd /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/tar or lss /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpcd

you see what lib's you need, check if you have them and if not install them.

I made my own PKGBUILD for

the libs i needed (found in lib-compat);

Installed with;

buildpkg

su

pacman -U <package>

.. and now it works like a charm :)

Thanks for great help, Peter.

Maybe I've write a wiki for it tomorrow.

I've had the same issues running RHEL-5.3_x86_64, turns out you need the 32bit libs in order for this to function properly. Steps I took in order to get this issues aleivated under RHEL are as follows.

yum install -y compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-138.i386

service xinetd restart

In order to test, telnet to your client machine running the NBU client on port 13782, hope this helps!

[MattS]

Wow, thanks misconfig!

I just happened to read this article after i posted another one and right now i have about 8 browser tabs open trying to figure out why this new RHEL5.3 client wont install! Thanks!

Matt

Oh! PS, for some reason xinetd didnt install itself either, so that was another problem i had to figure out.  That is located on disk 2 of the install CD's.  See these articles:
