Installing the Linux Client

To download the AVCLI client for Linux:

  1. Download the Linux client:
    1. Go to the Downloads page at http://www.stratus.com/go/support/everrun.
    2. On the Downloads page, click everRun (if it is not already displayed) and then select the appropriate version.
    3. Scroll down to Drivers and Tools and then continue scrolling to everRun Command Line Interface (AVCLI).
    4. Select the RHEL (64-bit) avcli client and save the file.
  2. Log on as the root user.
  3. Add the directory /usr/bin, if it does not exist.
  4. Install the client by typing:
rpm -i avcli*.rpm

Your Linux system can contain only one copy of AVCLI at one time. If another version is already installed, you receive an error message similar to the following:

file /usr/bin/avcli.bat from install of avcli-2.1.1-0 conflicts with file from package avcli-1.0-0 file /usr/lib/ImportExportLibs.jar from install of avcli-2.1.1-0 conflicts with file from package avcli-1.0-0

If you receive the preceding message, remove the previous version of AVCLI by typing:

rpm -e avcli-1.0-0

Then repeat step 4.
