Installing the Avamar Plug-in for Oracle on Windows

Install the Avamar Plug-in for Oracle on both Windows stand-alone systems and MSCS two-node clusters. In a cluster, install the Avamar Plug-in for Oracle on both nodes and in the same directory on each node.

Prerequisites

  • The Avamar Plug-in for Oracle is automatically installed in the same folder as the Avamar Client for Windows.
  • If the Oracle software is installed with the New Windows User, ensure that the Avamar Plug-in for Oracle software is installed outside of the default path. For example, C:\Program Files\avs.
  • If UAC is enabled on the client computer, you must start the setup wizard by using administrator privileges. Otherwise, the software does not install correctly. This procedure provides one method to bypass UAC. The Microsoft documentation provides other methods and additional information.

Steps

  1. Log in to the Oracle server as an administrator.
  2. Go to the temporary directory that contains the installation files that you downloaded in Downloading the software.
  3. Start the Avamar Plug-in for Oracle installation:
    • If UAC is disabled, double-click the installation package to open it.
    • If UAC is enabled, open a command prompt as an administrator, change directory to the location of the installation package, and then type the following command:

      msiexec /i AvamarRMAN-windows-platform-version.msi

      where:

      • platform is the Windows platform type.
      • version is the Avamar software version.
    The welcome page appears.
  4. Click Next.
    The Ready to install Avamar Backup Plug-in for Oracle page appears.
  5. Click Install.
    The Installing Avamar Backup Plug-in for Oracle page appears. A status bar shows the installation’s progress. After the installation completes, the Completed the Avamar Backup Plug-in for Oracle Setup Wizard page appears.
  6. Click Finish.
  7. In a cluster, repeat this installation procedure on each node.
