Esta página descreve como instalar o agente de backup e DR em um host Linux e
realizar outras operações, como regenerar uma chave secreta, verificar o
status do agente de backup e DR e reiniciar o agente de backup e DR.
Como funciona
O agente de backup e DR para Linux é executado como um processo daemon no raiz do nome de usuário.
Ele detecta a comunicação do appliance de backup/recuperação na porta TCP 5106.
O agente grava em um arquivo de registro no diretório de instalação
/var/act/log/UDSAgent.log e publica eventos significativos no
repositório /var/log/messages.
Depois de instalar o agente, é necessário inicializar as comunicações confiáveis
entre o appliance de backup/recuperação e o agente de backup e DR.
Isso só precisa ser feito uma vez.
A chave secreta precisa ser adicionada em até duas horas após a geração.
Se a chave secreta expirar, você vai precisar gerar uma nova chave.
Instalar o agente em um host Linux
Use as instruções a seguir para instalar o agente em um host Linux:
Faça upload do arquivo de instalação no servidor Linux.
Para instalar o agente, escolha uma das seguintes opções:
Para a instalação do Linux de 32 bits, execute o seguinte comando.
rpm -ivh connector-Linux_x86-version.rpm
Para a instalação no Linux de 64 bits, execute o comando a seguir.
rpm -ivh connector-Linux-version.rpm
Para a instalação no Linux Ubuntu, execute o seguinte comando.
dpkg -i connector-linux_ubuntu_amd64-version.deb
O agente sempre é instalado em /opt/act. Quando a instalação for
concluída, uma chave secreta vai aparecer.
Salve a chave secreta em um bloco de notas ou em um editor de texto. Você precisa adicionar essa chave
na seção "Agente de backup e DR". Consulte
Adicionar host Linux.
Gerar novamente a chave secreta
A chave secreta gerada na seção Instalar o agente em um host Linux é válida por apenas duas horas. Você precisa adicionar o token ao console de gerenciamento nesse período ou gerar um novo.
Use as instruções abaixo para gerar uma nova chave e adicioná-la ao console de
gerenciamento.
No host Linux, faça login como usuário raiz e execute um dos comandos no
diretório:
Para redefinir a chave secreta após a confirmação da ação, execute o seguinte
comando:
/opt/act/bin/udsagent secret --reset
Para redefinir o secret imediatamente sem confirmação, execute o seguinte
comando:
/opt/act/bin/udsagent secret --reset --restart
Salve a chave secreta em um bloco de notas ou no editor. Essa chave secreta é válida por
duas horas.
Adicionar uma chave secreta
Se você quiser atualizar a chave secreta ou não a adicionou
na primeira vez, adicione no host do Linux
usando as instruções abaixo.
No console de gerenciamento, selecione Gerenciar e Hosts.
Clique com o botão direito do mouse no host do Linux e escolha Edit.
Acesse a seção Configurações do agente de backup e DR e encontre o campo
Secret.
Depois que o agente for instalado, você poderá verificar o status dele nos hosts Linux usando
os comandos abaixo.

For example, if a host\nremains offline for an extended period, its certificate status may change to\n\"Uninitialized\". If this occurs, you must [generate a new key](#regenerate) to\nre-establish a valid certificate and resume normal operation.\n\nInstall the agent on a Linux host\n---------------------------------\n\n| **Note:** You must have at least 1 GB of free space in the /opt directory for UDSAgent to install or upgrade on Linux hosts.\n\nUse the following instructions to install the agent on a Linux host:\n\n1. Download the agent installer file, see\n [Obtain the right Backup and DR agent for your host](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/concepts/about-connector#right-connector).\n\n2. Upload the installer file to your Linux server.\n\n3. To install the agent, choose one of the following:\n\n - For Linux 32-bit installation, run the following command.\n\n rpm -ivh connector-Linux_x86-\u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eversion\u003c/var\u003e.rpm\n\n - For Linux 64-bit installation, run the following command.\n\n rpm -ivh connector-Linux-\u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eversion\u003c/var\u003e.rpm\n\n - For Linux Ubuntu installation, run the following command.\n\n dpkg -i connector-linux_ubuntu_amd64-\u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eversion\u003c/var\u003e.deb\n\n The agent always installs at `/opt/act`. When the installation is\n complete, a secret key displays.\n4. Save the secret key in a notepad or in a text editor, you need to add this\n in Backup and DR agent section, see\n [Add Linux host](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/configuration/add-linux-hosts).\n\n### Regenerate the secret key\n\nThe secret key that is generated in the\n[Install the agent on a Linux host](#agent-linux) section is\nvalid only for two hours. You need to add it to the management console within\nthis timeframe or generate a new one.\n\nUse the following instructions to generate a new key and add it to the management\nconsole.\n\n1. On the Linux host, sign in as a root user and run either of the commands in\n the directory:\n\n - To reset the secret key after confirmation the action, run the following\n command:\n\n /opt/act/bin/udsagent secret --reset\n\n - To reset the secret immediately without confirmation, run the following\n command:\n\n /opt/act/bin/udsagent secret --reset --restart\n\n2. Save the secret key in a notepad or in editor. This secret key is valid for\n two hours.\n\n### Add a secret key\n\nIf you want to update the secret key or didn't add the secret key\nthe first time, you can add in the [Linux host](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/configuration/add-linux-hosts)\nusing the following instructions.\n\n1. In the management console, select **Manage** and then select **Hosts**.\n\n2. Right-click the Linux host and choose **Edit**.\n\n3. Go to **Backup and DR agent Settings** section and find the\n **Secret** field.\n\n4. Paste the secret key that you saved earlier in the **Secret** field\n and click **Save** . Ensure the **Certificate** status changes to **Valid** .\n If you get a partial success message, use the instructions to\n [Validate backup/recovery appliance to Backup and DR agent connectivity](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/concepts/appliance-network-settings#validate).\n\n### Check Backup and DR agent status\n\nAfter the agent is installed, you can verify its status on the Linux hosts using\nthe following commands.\n\n- On non-system targets (RHEL before 7.0 and SUSE Linux before 12.0),\n run the following command.\n\n service udsagent status\n\n The output looks similar to the following for the line `udsagent daemon is running`: \n\n service udsagent status\n udsagent daemon is running\n\n- On `systemd` targets (RHEL 7.0+, SUSE Linux 12.0+, and Ubuntu 16.0+), run the following\n command:\n\n systemctl status udsagent\n\n The output looks similar to the following: \n\n ```postgres\n [root@postgres ~]# systemctl status udsagent\n ● udsagent.service - Google Cloud Backup and DR service\n Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/udsagent.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)\n Active: active (running) since Wed 2022-11-09 22:13:45 UTC; 17min age\n Process: 1056 ExecStart=/act/initscripts/udsagent.init start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)\n Main PID: 1128 (udsagent)\n CGroup: /system.slice/udsagent.service\n ├─1128 /opt/act/bin/udsagent start\n └─1132 /opt/act/bin/udsagent start\n\n Nov 09 22:13:44 postgres systemd[1]: Starting Google Cloud Backup and DR Service...\n Nov 09 22:13:45 postgres udsagent.init[1056]: Starting /opt/act/bin/udsagent as a daemon.

It may take a few minutes for the service to start completely.\n\n### Restart the Backup and DR agent on a Linux host\n\nTo restart the Backup and DR agent on a Linux host, execute the following\ncommand on the host.\n\n- For **Non-systemd (RHEL before 7.0 and SUSE Linux before 12.0)** hosts,\n run the following command:\n\n /etc/init.d/udsagent restart\n\n- For **Systemd (RHEL 7.0+, SUSE Linux 12.0+, and Ubuntu 16.0+)** hosts,\n run the following command:\n\n systemctl restart udsagent\n\n### Uninstall the Backup and DR agent from a Linux host using the command line\n\nUse the following instructions to uninstall the Backup and DR agent from a\nLinux host: \n\n### CentOS/RHEL/SLES\n\n1. Sign in as a root user and stop the Backup and DR agent by running the\n following command:\n\n systemctl stop udsagent\n\n For older Linux versions you may need to use the following command: \n\n /etc/init.d/udsagent stop\n\n2. Check the installed Linux Backup and DR agent\n RPM name with the following command:\n\n yum list installed | grep udsagent\n\n You can also use the following command to check the RPM name: \n\n rpm -qa udsagent\n\n The output looks similar to the following: \n\n udsagent-11.0.1-8756.x86_64\n\n3. Uninstall the package using the name you obtained from the query.\n For example:\n\n yum remove udsagent-11.0.1-8756.x86_64\n\n You can also use the following command to uninstall the package: \n\n rpm -e udsagent-11.0.1-8756.x86_64\n\n### Ubuntu\n\n1. Sign in as a root user and stop the Backup and DR agent by running the\n following command:\n\n systemctl stop udsagent\n\n2. Uninstall the agent using the following command:\n\n dpkg --remove udsagent\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\n- To install Backup and DR agent on a Linux host, see [Install the Backup and DR agent on a Linux host](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/configuration/linux-agent)\n\n- To install Backup and DR agent on a Windows host, see [Backup and DR agent on Windows hosts](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/configuration/windows-agent)\n\n- To configure iSCSI connectivity on a Linux host, see [iSCSI connectivity on a Linux host](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/configuration/add-linux-hosts#iSCSI)\n\n- To configure NFS connectivity on a Linux host, see [NFS connectivity on a Linux host](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/configuration/add-linux-hosts#NFS)\n\n- To upgrade Backup and DR agent, see [Maintain Backup and DR agents on hosts](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/configuration/manage-agent)"]]
