You can install Data Protection for SQL Server from
a DVD. The setup wizard guides you through the process of installing Data Protection for SQL Server.
Before you begin
Before you install and configure
Data Protection for SQL Server, verify
that you satisfy the hardware and software requirements.
You
can obtain the installation package from the product DVD or
from an IBM® download site.
- If you obtain the package from the product DVD, ensure that the
installation files are visible on the DVD drive.
- If you obtain the package from an IBM download
site, you must extract the installation files.
About this task
Data Protection for SQL Server is available
in both licensed and maintenance packages. The installation process
differs between these two package types.
- Licensed package
- Includes a license enablement file that is only available from
your software distribution channel, such as Passport Advantage®, and
includes the initial General Availability release of a product or
component.
- Maintenance update (fix pack or interim fix package)
- Available from the maintenance delivery channel, and can sometimes
be used to refresh the software distribution channel. Maintenance
packages do not contain license enablement files and must be
installed after a licensed package.
See the README.FTP file
for information about how to install a fix pack or interim
fix package. The README.FTP file is available
in the same directory where the maintenance package is downloaded.
Procedure
- Install Data Protection for SQL Server by using
the setup wizard. The wizard installs the product and
any prerequisites such as the .NET Framework and Report
Viewer.
- Log on as an administrator.
- Download the appropriate package file from one of the
following websites, or you can access the files from
the product DVD:
- If you download the package from one of the download
sites, complete the following steps:
- Verify that you have enough space to store the installation files
when they are extracted from the product package.
- Change to the directory where you placed the executable file.
Important: In the next step, the files are extracted to the
current directory. The path must contain no more
than 128 characters. Be sure to extract the installation
files to an empty directory. Do not extract the files to a
directory that contains previously extracted files, or
any other files.
- Either double-click the executable file, or enter the following command on the command line to
extract the installation files. The files are extracted to the current
directory.
package_name.exe
where package_name is like this
example: 7.1.4.0-TIV-TSMSQL-Win.exe
- Follow the installation instructions that are displayed
on the screen.
If
you are configuring Data Protection for SQL Server with
SQL Server 2012 or later versions, enter a node name
in the AlwaysOn Node field
in the TSM Node Names page in the
configuration wizard. This node name is used to back up the availability
database backups.
- If prompted, restart your system before the installation
is completed.
- Click Finish. Microsoft Management Console
(MMC) is shared among Data Protection for SQL Server, and IBM Spectrum Protect™
Snapshot. If
one of these products is installed in a location other
than the default location, the setup wizard defaults to
the existing installation directory. Use the same directory when
you install any of these products on the same computer.
The default base directory is c:\program
files\tivoli.
- If you are installing Data Protection for SQL Server in a Microsoft Windows Failover Clustering environment or
Veritas Cluster server environment, repeat the installation procedure
on all nodes of your cluster.
