NMDA software requirements

EMC® NetWorker® Module for Databases and Applications (NMDA) is a NetWorker
add-on module that provides data protection services for the supported DB2, Informix,
Lotus Domino/Notes, MySQL, Oracle, and Sybase ASE databases.
The following table lists the hosts and software that you might require for NMDA
services.

Note

Before you install NMDA, install both the NetWorker base client and extended client
software packages on the database server host.

Table 3 Typical hosts and software in the NMDA environment

Host Required software

NetWorker server l NetWorker base and extended client
l NetWorker storage node
l NetWorker server

NetWorker storage node l NetWorker base and extended client

l NetWorker storage node

NetWorker Management Console (NMC) l NetWorker base and extended client

server
l NMC server

Each supported database server (NMDA l Supported database or application server

host)
l NetWorker base and extended client
l NMDA
l For snapshot operations with Oracle
ASM, EMC Replication Manager software

Review the following software descriptions to plan the installation requirements.

The bitness (32-bit or 64-bit) of NMDA software that is required depends on the
bitness of the database or application server being protected.
With one exception, you require 32-bit NMDA to support a 32-bit database or
application server and 64-bit NMDA to support a 64-bit database or application server,
regardless of the operating system bitness. The exception is that 32-bit NMDA
supports both 32-bit and 64-bit Sybase ASE on AIX and Solaris SPARC.
If only 32-bit database or application servers are installed on a 64-bit system, then you
only need to install 32-bit NMDA on the system.
If both 32-bit and 64-bit database or application servers are installed on the same
system, refer to the sections in this guide about NMDA with mixed 32-bit and 64-bit
databases and applications.
The EMC NetWorker Online Software Compatibility Matrix at http://
compatibilityguide.emc.com:8080/CompGuideApp/ provides details about the
operating systems and software versions that are required for NMDA services.

12 EMC NetWorker Module for Databases and Applications 9.0.x Installation Guide
 Getting Started

The EMC NetWorker Installation Guide describes how to install the NetWorker server,
storage node, client, and NMC software.

Database or application server software

Ensure that the supported DB2, Informix, Lotus Domino/Notes, MySQL, Oracle, or
Sybase ASE database or application server is installed on an operating system that
supports the NetWorker client and NMDA version to be installed on that host.
If you install NMDA in a non-English environment, ensure that you meeting the
following requirements:
l The host operating system supports internationalization (I18N).
l The database or application software provides the required National Language
Support (NLS) or globalization support.
l The database or application software is configured with the required non-ASCII
character set.

NetWorker server software

Install a supported version of the NetWorker server software on the NetWorker server
host. The NetWorker server host is usually a separate host, but the server host can
also be the NMDA host.
You might require specific NetWorker server versions to support specific NMDA
features as described in the EMC NetWorker Module for Databases and Applications
Release 9.0.x Release Notes.
Use a supported version of the NetWorker server that works with the NetWorker
client version installed on the NMDA host. The operating systems that are used must
support the NetWorker server version.

NMC server software

Install a supported version of the NMC software on a network host to provide a user
interface with the NetWorker software and NMDA.

NetWorker storage node software

Install a supported version of the NetWorker storage node software on the host that
manages the backup storage devices. You can configure a NetWorker storage node on
the same host as the NetWorker server, on the same host as NMDA (to support
backups to a local device), or on a separate host.
Use a supported version of the NetWorker storage node that works with the
NetWorker client version that is installed on the NMDA host and the NetWorker
server. The operating systems that are used must support the NetWorker storage
node version.

NetWorker client software

Install a supported version of the NetWorker client software on the supported
database or application server host before you install NMDA on that host. Install both
the NetWorker base client and extended client software packages.
NMDA can use the NetWorker Snapshot Management (NSM) feature to provide a
high-availability storage environment for snapshot backups and restores of DB2 and
Oracle data. To enable the snapshot-based operations, install the NetWorker base
client and extended client software packages on both of the following hosts:

Database or application server software 13

Getting Started

l NMDA host
l A mount host
The mount host can be either of the following hosts:
n A separate host, to offload the data transfer from the database host
n The same host as the database or application host

Note

Some operating systems and volume managers require that you configure a mount
host on a separate host from the database or application host. For example,
Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM) and Linux Logical Volume Manager (LVM) do not
support the use of the database or application host as the mount host. The EMC
NetWorker Snapshot Management Integration Guide provides a full list of restrictions
and details.

NMDA software
Install NMDA on a supported database server or application server.
For Oracle ASM snapshot backups and restores with EMC Replication Manager, also
install NMDA on the mount host.

Replication Manager software

Due to an Oracle limitation, you cannot back up Oracle ASM by using NSM. To enable
the snapshot backups with Oracle ASM, the EMC Replication Manager server
software must work with the Replication Manager agent software that is installed on
both of the following hosts:
l Oracle server
l A mount host (data mover), which can be a NetWorker storage node
The EMC Replication Manager documentation describes the installation procedures.

Installation checklists
Review the following checklists to ensure that you have the required materials for the
NMDA installation procedures.

Documents
You can find the required information in the following documents:
l EMC NetWorker Module for Databases and Applications Installation Guide for the
existing version, if you are updating from a previous NMDA version to NMDA 9.0.x

Installation road maps 17

Getting Started

Procedure
1. Review the Installation checklists on page 14 and verify that you have the
required documentation, installation media, and license information.
2. If you installed Informix Storage Manager (ISM) on the host, uninstall ISM
according to the instructions in Uninstalling ISM on an Informix Server on page
55.
3. Ensure that you have installed the NetWorker client software on the host. The
client version must support the NMDA version to be installed.

4. Access the NMDA software as described in Accessing the NMDA software on

page 15, and then ensure that you are in the correct directory.

Note

If you do not start the installation from the correct directory, the installation
might fail.

5. Ensure that no backups or restores are running on the database server or

application server. You do not need to shut down the database or application
during the installation.
6. Uninstall any previous version of NMDA according to the instructions in the
installation guide for the module version.

NOTICE

Do not use an upgrade option on the platform, for example, the rpm -U
command on Linux.

7. Before the NMDA installation, ensure that the NetWorker Remote Exec
daemon, nsrexecd, is running on UNIX or Linux, or the NetWorker Remote
Exec service, nsrexecd.exe, is running on Windows.
To verify that the NetWorker Remote Exec daemon or service is running:
l On UNIX or Linux, type the following command

ps -ef | grep nsrexecd

l On Windows, use either Component Services or Task Manager.

If the NetWorker Remote Exec daemon or service is not running:
l To start the NetWorker Remote Exec daemon on UNIX or Linux, log in as
root, and type the appropriate startup command from the following table.

Table 6 NetWorker startup commands on UNIX and Linux

Operating system Startup command

Solaris, Linux /etc/init.d/networker start

HP-UX /sbin/init.d/networker start

AIX /etc/rc.nsr

l To start the NetWorker Remote Exec service on Windows, perform the

following steps:

18 EMC NetWorker Module for Databases and Applications 9.0.x Installation Guide
 Getting Started

a. Log in as a Windows Administrator.

b. Right-click My Computer, and select Manage.
c. Expand Configuration, and select Services.
d. Right-click the NetWorker Remote Exec Service, and select Start.

Note

If you do not start the NetWorker Remote Exec daemon or service before the
NMDA installation, then the automatic registration of the NMDA configuration
wizard might not occur and the wizard might fail to detect if NMDA is installed.
Road map to post-installation procedures on page 21 describes the manual
wizard registration.

8. If you want to install NMDA on a system that runs both a 32-bit and 64-bit
database or application that NMDA supports, follow the instructions in NMDA
with Mixed 32-bit and 64-bit Databases and Applications on page 49.
For example, follow the instructions for a mixed 32-bit/64-bit system if the
same host runs both 32-bit and 64-bit Lotus Domino or runs both 32-bit Sybase
ASE and 64-bit DB2.

Note

On HP Itanium, if you installed Sybase ASE 15.5 or later and Sybase ASE 15.0.3
on the same system, follow the instructions in NMDA with Mixed 32-bit and 64-
bit Databases and Applications on page 49. The ASE Backup Server is 64-bit
in the 15.5 and later releases and the server is 32-bit in earlier releases.

If the system runs a single database or application or if the system runs multiple
databases or applications that are all supported by a single NMDA package,
then skip this step.

9. If you performed step 8, then skip this step. Otherwise, install NMDA by
following the instructions for the operating system in the correct chapter:
l UNIX and Linux Installation on page 23
l Microsoft Windows Installation on page 39

Note

If only 32-bit database or application servers are installed on a 64-bit system,

then you only need to install 32-bit NMDA on the system.

After the software installation completes, a message appears about how to

start the NMDA scheduled backup configuration wizard. The EMC NetWorker
Module for Databases and Applications Release 9.0.x Administration Guide
describes the wizard.

10. Perform all the required post-installation procedures. Road map to post-
installation procedures on page 21 provides details.

Road map to update NMDA with the Package Manager

1. Review the Installation checklists on page 14.
2. Ensure that you meet the following requirements:
l NMDA 1.5 or later is installed on the NMDA host, and the operating systems
support the Package Manager. You cannot perform an update of earlier
NMDA releases.
The EMC NetWorker Updating from a Previous Release Guide at EMC Online
Support describes the operating systems that support the Package Manager
feature on the NMDA host.
l The NMDA client host contains a supported version of the NetWorker client
software.
l The remote NetWorker server is release 9.0 or later. The NetWorker client
on the NMDA host is release 8.1 or later.
l The user that performs the update is both an NMC administrator and a
member of the application administrator's user group on the NetWorker
server.
3. Before you start an update, ensure that all backups and restores are stopped on
the client to be updated.

Note

The Package Manager might stop and restart the NetWorker client nsrexecd
daemon or service during the installation.

4. On the NetWorker server, perform the update of the NMDA client by using the
Package Manager feature or the nsrpush command.
The EMC NetWorker Updating from a Previous Release Guide provides more
information.

5. Perform all the required post-installation procedures on the client host. Road
map to post-installation procedures on page 21 provides details.

Road map to post-installation procedures

After you have installed or updated NMDA, either directly on a local host or by remote
installation with Package Manager, complete the installation by performing any
required post-installation procedures.
Procedure
1. If you are installing NMDA for the first time on the host, register and enable
NMDA to work with the NetWorker software.
The EMC NetWorker Licensing Guide describes licensing and enabling of
software.
The EMC Price Guide describes the licensing requirements for NetWorker
modules.

2. If you perform snapshot backups for Oracle ASM on the host, install and enable
the required Replication Manager agent software on the NMDA host and the
mount host.
The Replication Manager server software must exist on a separate host.

3. Ensure that the automatic wizard registration succeeded:

a. Log in as the root user (UNIX or Linux) or system administrator (Windows).
b. At a new command prompt, type the appropriate command:
l On UNIX or Linux, type the following command:

nsradmin -p nsrexecd

l On Windows, type the following command:

nsradmin.exe -p nsrexecd

c. At the nsradmin> prompt, type the following command:

print type: NSR remote agent

Check that the command output includes the correct values for "backup
type" (database or application type that you want to protect) and "product
version" (version of NMDA that you installed). You can run the exit
command to return to the original console.
If the command output is missing or does not contain the correct values,
then the NetWorker Remote Exec service (the nsrexecd or
nsrexecd.exe program) was not running during the NMDA installation.
Perform one of the following corrective actions:
l Start the NetWorker Remote Exec service, and then reinstall NMDA.
l Register the wizard manually by typing the appropriate command from
the following table.

Road map to post-installation procedures 21

Getting Started

Note

To unregister the wizard manually, use the command from the table but
replace the -i option with -u.

Table 7 Command to register the wizard

Database or application Wizard registration command

DB2 nsrdb2ra(.exe) -i

Informix nsrifmxra(.exe) -i

Lotus nsrlotusra(.exe) -i

MySQL nsrmysqlra(.exe) -i

Oracle nsrorara(.exe) -i

Sybase ASE nsrsybra(.exe) -i

4. On UNIX or Linux, to ensure the success of backups and restores, check that
the /nsr/apps directory and its subdirectories have the 01777 permissions.
The NMDA installation sets the permissions to 01777 for /nsr/apps and its
subdirectories. These permissions are required for non-root database users to
create temporary files and logs during backups and restores. The sticky bit is
also set to ensure that the files can be removed only by the file owners. For
example, the permissions appear as follows:

drwxrwxrwt 6 root root 4096 Dec 22 12:17 /nsr/apps

5. Configure the NMDA software.

the MySQL server host, as detailed in the EMC NetWorker Module for Databases
and Applications Release Notes.
l MySQL client library libmysqlclient.so version 18 (MySQL 5.5 and 5.6) or
version 20 (MySQL 5.7) is installed on the MySQL server host, and the
corresponding symbolic link is created.
Complete the following steps to install the MySQL client library
libmysqlclient.so version 18 or 20 on the MySQL host and create the
corresponding symbolic link.
Procedure
1. To install MySQL libmysqlclient.so version 18 or 20, download the
appropriate package from the Oracle support website, and then install the
package on the MySQL server host:
l For MySQL version 5.5 or 5.6 with libmysqlclient.so.18, install
MySQL-shared-advanced-version.rpm, where version depends on the
Linux operating system and MySQL version in use.
l For MySQL version 5.7 with libmysqlclient.so.20, install mysql-
commercial-libs-version.rpm, where version depends on the Linux
operating system and MySQL version in use.
The libmysqlclient.so.20 libraries are installed in /usr/lib/mysql
(32-bit) or /usr/lib64/mysql (64-bit).

2. For MySQL version 5.7, create a symbolic link from the file named
libmysqlclient.so to the actual library file. For MySQL 5.5 and 5.6, this
step is required only if you installed the MySQL library in a nondefault location:
l If you installed the MySQL 5.5 or 5.6 library in a nondefault location:
n On 32-bit Linux, type the following command:

ln –s <install_pathname>/libmysqlclient.so.18 /usr/lib/
libmysqlclient.so

n On 64-bit Linux, type the following command:

ln –s <install_pathname>/libmysqlclient.so.18 /usr/lib64/
libmysqlclient.so

l If you installed the MySQL 5.7 library in the default location:

the /nsr/nsrrc file if it does not exist. Also set LANG in the file to one of the
locales that the Sybase server supports. If you do not have a preferred locale
value, set LANG to C:

# cat /nsr/nsrrc
LANG=C
export LANG

After you set the environment variable, restart the NetWorker client. The EMC
NetWorker Administration Guide provides details about the NetWorker software.

4. With Sybase 16.0 SP02, Sybase delivers a 64-bit backup server in addition to a
32-bit backup server. The backup server script points to the 64-bit backup
server by default. To enable NMDA backups on AIX and Solaris SPARC, change
the script to point to the 32-bit backup server.
For example, the default backup script is as follows:

#!/bin/sh
#
# Error log path: /space2/sybase/ASE-16_0/install/
sybase160_BS.log
# Maximum number of network connections: 25
# Maximum number of server connections: 20
# Interfaces file path: /space2/sybase/interfaces
# Multibuf executable path: /space2/sybase/ASE-16_0/bin/

-N25 \
-C20 \
-I/space2/sybase/interfaces \
-M/space2/sybase/ASE-16_0/bin/sybmultbuf \
-Ssybase160_BS \

Change two lines in the script to point to the 32-bit backup server:

Linking NMDA to the Sybase ASE server on HP Itanium

Sybase changed the bitness of the ASE Backup Server for HP Itanium processors
between ASE releases 15.0.3 and 15.5:
l ASE 15.0.3 has a 32-bit server and requires the NMDA 32-bit libnsrsyb.so
library.
l ASE 15.5 or later has a 64-bit server and requires the NMDA 64-bit
libnsrsyb.so library.

Note

Regardless of the Sybase ASE version, the NMDA installation on HP Itanium places
only the libnsrsyb.so (64-bit) library file in the NMDA installation directory. To
ensure that you link the correct library, perform the required procedure for the ASE
version.

Linking NMDA to ASE 15.0.3 on HP Itanium

The NMDA installation does not place the required 32-bit libnsrsyb32.so library
file in the installation directory.
Copy the libnsrsyb32.so library file to the installation directory and link the library
file to the Sybase ASE server.
Procedure

Installing NMDA on Microsoft Windows

Install NMDA on a Windows system by running the NMDA Setup program,
win_x64\networkr\NMDA.exe.
Procedure
1. Complete the initial steps in Installation road maps on page 17. Ensure that you
meet the following requirements:
l You are logged in as an administrator.
l No backups or restores are running.
l The nsrexecd.exe service is running. You can check the service status by
running either Component Services or Task Manager.
l You are in the correct directory that contains the NMDA installation files.

2. Install NMDA by using one of the following methods:

l Setup program method with installation wizard:
a. Run the NMDA Setup program, win_x64\networkr\NMDA.exe, and
follow the instructions that the installation wizard provides.

Note

If the NMDA Setup program detects no NetWorker client program files,

the program displays an error message and exits without installing
NMDA.

b. To exit the Setup program, click Finish.

l Silent installation method:
Run the NMDA.exe command with the appropriate command options:

NMDA.exe <installation_options>

where <installation_options> includes the following options:

n /s /q suppresses all the UI output.
n /passive displays the progress bar only during the installation.
n /repair runs a repair or (if the software is not installed) an installation.
n /l <pathname> specifies the log file pathname. Enclose <pathname> in
double quotes if it includes a space. The default directory for the log file
is C:\users\username\AppData\Local\temp.
For example, the following command performs a silent NMDA installation
that logs messages in the C:\Program Files\EMC NetWorker\nsr
\logs\nmda_installation.log file:

NMDA.exe /s /q /l "C:\Program Files\EMC NetWorker\nsr\logs

\nmda_installation.log"

When the NMDA package has the same bitness as the NetWorker client
package that is installed on the system, the NMDA program files are installed in

40 EMC NetWorker Module for Databases and Applications 9.0.x Installation Guide
 Microsoft Windows Installation

the same directory as the NetWorker client program files,

NetWorker_install_path\bin.
When you install a 32-bit NMDA package on 64-bit Windows with a 64-bit
NetWorker client package, the NMDA program files are installed in
%SystemDrive%\Program Files (x86)\Legato\nsr\bin, regardless of
where the NetWorker client program files are installed.

3. Verify that the system Path environment variable includes the required
directories, including the NetWorker client installation directory and NMDA
installation directory. For example:
a. Browse to Control Panel > System > Advanced System Settings.
b. On the Advanced tab, click Environment Variables.
c. In the System Variables section, verify the Path variable. The Path variable
must include the following directories:
l NetWorker client installation directory, for example,
NetWorker_install_dir\bin.
l NMDA installation directory, as described in step 2.

Note

The directory pathname can include spaces, but there cannot be spaces
before or after the pathname.

d. If you modified the Path variable, restart the NetWorker Remote Exec
Service (the program nsrexecd.exe).
4. Restart the database server, if required:
l If you installed the NetWorker client software for the first time in a
particular directory on a DB2, Oracle, or a Sybase ASE server before you
installed NMDA, then restart the DB2, Oracle, or Sybase ASE server
instance.
l If you installed 32-bit NMDA for the first time with a 64-bit NetWorker client
on a Sybase ASE server and you will perform Client Direct backups to a Data
Domain device, restart the Sybase ASE server.
5. If you installed a 32-bit NMDA package on 64-bit Windows with a 64-bit
NetWorker client package, then restart the NetWorker Remote Exec Service
(the program nsrexecd.exe).
6. Link NMDA to the database or the application server environment by
completing the steps in Linking and unlinking NMDA in the environment on
Windows on page 42.
7. Return to the installation road map to perform any post-installation procedures.
As part of these procedures, ensure that the NMDA automatic wizard
registration succeeded by using the following commands:

nsradmin.exe -p nsrexecd
nsradmin> print type: NSR remote agent

Microsoft Windows Installation

Linking and unlinking NMDA in the environment on Windows

After you install NMDA on Windows as described in the preceding part of this chapter,
perform an additional procedure to link NMDA to the database or application
environment. Before you uninstall NMDA, also remove the link.
Use the correct instructions that follow to perform the linking or unlinking procedure
for the database or application:
l Linking NMDA in a DB2 environment
l Linking and unlinking NMDA in an Informix environment
l Linking and unlinking NMDA in a Lotus Notes environment (optional)
l Linking and unlinking NMDA in a Sybase ASE environment

Note

In an Oracle environment, you do not require the linking or unlinking procedure to

install or uninstall NMDA.

Linking NMDA in a DB2 environment

NOTICE

You must not set the DB2_VENDOR_INI registry variable. Also, if the %INSTHOME%
\sqllib\cfg\vendor.cfg file exists, either remove the file or remove all the
NMDA parameter settings from the file.

You do not require unlinking steps to uninstall NMDA in a DB2 environment.

After you install NMDA on a DB2 server, use the db2set command to check if the
DB2_VENDOR_INI registry variable is set. The db2set command displays all the
variable settings. For example:

C:\Program Files\IBM\SQLLIB\BIN>db2set
DB2ACCOUNTNAME=CORP\brownr1
DB2INSTOWNER=CA-RBROWN-4
DB2PORTRANGE=60000:60003
DB2INSTPROF=C:\PROGRAMDATA\IBM\DB2\DB2COPY1
DB2COMM=TCPIP

Complete the following steps to implement the changes on the DB2 server.
Procedure
1. Log in as the DB2 user.
2. Remove the %INSTHOME%\sqllib\cfg\vendor.cfg file, or edit the file and
remove all the NMDA parameter settings.
3. Stop the database engine with the db2stop command.
4. Unset the DB2_VENDOR_INI variable with the db2set command:

db2set DB2_VENDOR_INI=

Uninstalling ISM on an Informix Server

ISM software on an Informix server

Informix Storage Manager (ISM) is a storage management software that is packaged
and installed with Informix Dynamic Server (IDS).
For Informix servers only, if you installed ISM software, uninstall the software before
you install NMDA by using the OS-specific instructions in the following topics:
l Uninstalling ISM on UNIX or Linux
l Uninstalling ISM on Microsoft Windows

Note

Starting with Informix 12.10, Informix Primary Storage Manager (PSM) replaces ISM.
When you install NMDA with IDS 12.10, you do not need to uninstall PSM. Follow the
linking instructions in the correct linking section of this guide.

Uninstalling ISM on UNIX or Linux

Complete the required steps to uninstall ISM on an Informix server on a UNIX or Linux
host.
Procedure
1. Log in as the root user on the NMDA host.
2. Change to the Informix directory:

# cd $INFORMIXDIR/bin

3. Shut down the ISM daemons:

# ./ism_shutdown

Note

The ism_shutdown command does not uninstall ISM. Complete the following
steps.

4. Verify that the daemons are shut down:

# ps -ef | grep nsr

5. Move the ISM executables to a temporary directory. For example:

# mkdir ISM.TMP
# mv ism* ISM.TMP
# mv nsr* ISM.TMP
# mv mm* ISM.TMP
# mv save* ISM.TMP
# mv scanner ISM.TMP

# mv uasm ISM.TMP
# mv recover ISM.TMP
# mv ansrd ISM.TMP

6. Move the ISM catalogs to a temporary directory:

# cd $INFORMIXDIR
# mv ism ism.bak

7. Remove the symbolic link to the ISM catalogs:

# rm /nsr

8. Remove the call to ism_catalog from the $INFORMIXDIR/bin/onbar

script.
9. Remove any references to ISM in the environment variable PATH.
10. Edit the $INFORMIXDIR/etc/$ONCONFIG file, and comment out the following
line if it exists:

#BAR_BSALIB_PATH ISM_library

Also, comment out any references to the following parameters:

ISM_DATA_POOL
ISM_LOG_POOL

Uninstalling ISM on Microsoft Windows

server on Windows.
Procedure
1. Log in as user informix.
2. Type the following command to set the Informix Database server environment
variables:

3. Change to the ISM directory. For example:

cd C:\ism\2.2\bin

4. Set the ISM path variable. For example:

set ISMDIR=C:\ism\2.2

5. Shut down the ISM services:

ism_shutdown -deinstall

6. Shut down ISM, and then verify that there are no services listed for ISM in
Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.
7. Rename the directory that contains ISM:

rename ism ism.bak

8. Remove the call to ism_catalog from the %INFORMIXDIR%\bin

\onbar.bat file.
9. Remove any references to ISM in the environment variable PATH.
Delete the %ISMDIR%\bin directory entry from the user environment variable
PATH. For example, change the following PATH setting:

PATH=C:\installdir;D:\ISM\2.20\bin;C:\msdev

The changed PATH setting is as follows:

PATH=C:\installdir;C:\msdev
