New page

Requirements: 
 
a) Enough disk space is available on the Backup server you want to use for the agent server 
b) The agent server is using a 64-bit OS 
c) The agent server is running the latest kernel 
 
----
 
1) On the agent server, add the R1Soft repository and install the software:

<pre>
curl http://www.ace-host.net/downloads/r1soft.repo >> /etc/yum.repos.d/r1soft.repo
yum -y install serverbackup-agent kernel-devel
chkconfig cdp-agent on
service cdp-agent start
</pre>

2) Retrieve the key from the backup server, and get the latest backup module:

<pre>
serverbackup-setup --get-key http://backup4.acenet.us
serverbackup-setup --get-module
</pre>

3) Allow the backup server in the agent server's firewall 
 

4) Generate a secure password from the monitor, and copy it to a notepad. You will need this to configure a MySQL instance on the Backup server

5) On the agent server, create a MySQL user with full privileges on the server. Use secure password you just copied down.

<pre>
mysql
CREATE USER 'CDPBackup'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'PASSWORDGOESHERE';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'CDPBackup'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
</pre>

6) Log into the backup server, and determine which partition to back the Agent server to.

7) Go to Protected Machines, and on the next page, hit the New Machine Button
