Registering the highly available single-instance database client

After you run the si_config script, run the avregister command on any node where the single-instance database is configured. The avregister command registers and activates the Avamar client with the Avamar server.

Steps

  1. Log in as root to one of the cluster nodes where the single-instance database is configured.
    NOTE:Run avregister on one node only.
  2. Change the directory to /usr/local/avamar/ora_database_name/bin by typing the following command:
    cd /usr/local/avamar/ora_database_name/bin
    where database_name is the name of the single-instance database.
  3. Start the registration script by typing the following command:
    ./avregister
    The following output appears in the command shell:

    === Client Registration and Activation
    This script will register and activate the client with the Administrator server.
    Enter the Administrator server address (DNS text name or
    numeric IP address, DNS name preferred):

  4. Type the DNS hostname or IP address of the Administrator server, and then press Enter.
    The following output appears in the command shell:

    Enter the Avamar server domain [clients]:

  5. Press Enter to accept the default domain (clients).
    The following output appears in the command shell:

    avagent.d Info: Server stopped. [ OK ]
    avagent Info <5241>: Logging to /usr/local/avamar/ora_rac/var/avagent.log
    avagent.d Info: Client activated successfully. [ OK ]
    avagent Info <5241>: Logging to /usr/local/avamar/ora_rac/var/avagent.log
    avagent Info <5417>: daemonized as process id 3385
    avagent.d Info: Server started. [ OK ]
    Registration Complete.

Results

Once you register the Avamar client with the Avamar server, start.sh runs and starts EMCagent as an Oracle cluster resource.
NOTE: If the database instance is running on another node, EMCagent_database_name will automatically fail over to the node on which the instance is running.

Management Console-initiated backups and restores are sent to the node where the EMCagent_database_name is running. If the database instance fails over to another node, the EMCagent_database_name resource is failed over to that node as well. The new node then automatically notifies the Avamar server of the address change for the active node.
