When the following prompt is displayed, select the applicable option.
Have you read and agreed to the terms of the license?
(y = yes, n = no, d = display license) (y n d) [d]: y
•
y: Indicates Yes. To accept the agreement, type y, and press Enter. The installation process continues without displaying the license agreement.
•
n: Indicates No. To decline the agreement, type n, and press Enter. The installation process stops.
•
d: Indicates Display. This option is the default. To view the agreement, type d, and press Enter. The license agreement is displayed in sections with a percentage value shown at the bottom of the screen. This value accounts for how much of the agreement has been displayed. Each time you press Enter, more of the agreement is displayed and this value increases. Continuously holding down the Enter key will scroll through the entire agreement, and end with the next prompt.
 
* 
IMPORTANT: Quest requires that you thoroughly review the license agreement before proceeding with the installation.
9
When the following prompt is displayed, indicate where you want NetVault SmartDisk installed.
Where should SmartDisk be installed? [/opt/smartdisk] :
10
When the nonprivileged-related prompts are displayed, enter the name of the nonprivileged user and the name of the user’s group:
Non privileged user? : <userName>
you chose <userName>
Non privileged user's group? [<userName>] : <userGroup>
you chose <userGroup>
11
When the additional location-related prompts are displayed, indicate where you want NetVault SmartDisk installed.
 
* 
NOTE: Linux, UNIX, and Solaris do not differentiate between local drives and mounted drives. If you choose to use a mounted drive, for example, using NFS, for the Staging Path and Store Path, Quest strongly recommends that you use a subdirectory on the applicable drive. This step ensures that data is not written to the local directory if the mounted location becomes unavailable.

You must specify different physical paths for the Staging Path and Store Path.

Staging path? [/opt/smartdisk/diskmanager/stage] :
.
Store path? (Note: A network share located on a third-party deduplication
appliance cannot be used for the Chunk Store.) [/opt/smartdisk/store] :
12
When the following prompt is displayed, enter y for Yes or n for No:
Would you like to configure WebDAV authentication credentials? (y n) [y]:
•
If you entered n, type y when the following confirmation prompt is displayed, and press Enter.
Do you want to continue with the installation of <smartdisk> [y,n,?]
•
If you entered y, enter the applicable user name and password when the corresponding prompts are displayed, making sure to press Enter after each entry. The installer verifies that the information you enter is correct.
 
* 
NOTE: For the user name in the WebDAV credentials, NetVault SmartDisk currently supports the use of any ASCII characters except the quotation mark ("), comma (,), and colon (:). The are no restrictions for the corresponding password.
You chose Yes.
WebDAV authentication username?:
Please enter the WebDAV authentication password for SmartDisk:
Please confirm password:
13
When the following prompt is displayed, type y, and press Enter:
Do you want to continue with the installation of <smartdisk> [y,n,?]

When the installation script is finished, verify that it indicates that the program started and installation completed successfully.
Starting SmartDisk... success
Installation of <smartdisk> was successful.

Installing on Windows

Depending on whether you are installing NetVault SmartDisk on a local machine or a domain client, review the applicable notes before proceeding to Completing installation on a Windows local or domain client.

Important note regarding installation on a local machine

If you are installing NetVault SmartDisk on a local machine, log in as an administrator before you begin the installation process.

Important notes regarding installation on a domain client

If you are installing NetVault SmartDisk on a Windows Domain client, review the following guidelines before you begin the installation process.

 
* 
NOTE: In the following guidelines, sample names are used to represent the different components. The Windows Domain is named DomainSample; the Windows Domain Controller is named WDC001; and the machine identified for NetVault SmartDisk installation is NetVault SmartDisk_client. Also, the information presented varies based on the version of Windows that you are using.
•
Verify that the machine on which you intend to install NetVault SmartDisk has been added to the Windows Domain.
•
Use a Windows utility, such as dcpromo, to specify the controller (WDC001) for the domain (DomainSample).
•
After you have specified the controller, add the intended NetVault SmartDisk machine, NetVault SmartDisk_client, to the domain (DomainSample). To add the client, you can log in to the client, NetVault SmartDisk_Client, and select My Computer > Properties > Computer Name > Change > Member of Domain > DomainSample.
If the client is unable to find the domain, add the Domain Controller's IP address to the client's list of preferred DNS server addresses. To add the address, use Control Panel > Network Connections > Local Area Connection > Properties > Internet Protocol > Properties > Use the following DNS server addresses.
•
After you have added the client to the domain, log in to the client as a domain user with sufficient privileges to install NetVault SmartDisk. The login might also have to include the privilege required to create the nonprivileged user account if the account does not exist.
•
With this infrastructure in place, you can begin the installation process. During install, be aware of the following guidelines.
•
During installation, enter the domain name, for example, DomainSample, in the Non-Privileged User dialog box.
•
If you are letting NetVault SmartDisk create the nonprivileged user, complete the applicable steps.
•
After installation is finished, verify that the new domain user has been created. To do so, log in to the Windows Domain Controller, and access Server Manager > Roles > Active Directory Domain Services > Active Directory Users and Computers > DomainSample > Users.
Figure 1. Server Manager
 
* 
NOTE: The NetVault SmartDisk installer tries to find the user account database that is associated with the domain entered in the Domain field. If the field is blank, it represents the local machine. If the field is not blank, the machine must be able to locate the domain controller of the specified domain. There are multiple ways of ensuring that the domain controller is located, one of which is to log in to the client as a domain user as shown previously.

Important notes regarding the Staging and Store Paths

•
If you intend to use network shares for both the Staging Path and the Store Path, these paths must be unique.
•
You must specify different physical paths for the Staging Path and Store Path.
•
The user context — domain or not — in which remote volumes are added for the Staging Path and Store Path is not related to the user context — local or domain — of the main NetVault SmartDisk installation. Therefore, if you must use a domain-user context for the remote Staging Path and Store Path volumes, use the standard format to complete the Username field. That is, use the <domainName>\<userName> format regardless of whether the <domainName> or <userName> is the same as what you specify elsewhere in the installation process.
•
After installation is finished, you can add more volumes. For more information, see Updating the Storage Pool directory structure.
