nsr_ize

The interactive nsr_ize program installs or removes Backup software and files to or from a machine. Informational prompts guide you through a series of questions, many of which already provide default answers to use for a standard environment.

The nsr_ize program modifies several system administration files, including /etc/rpc. If you use YP, modify the YP master's /etc/rpc file with the same modifications that nsr_ize makes to the local copy of /etc/rpc.

The following example describes the format and options available for the nsr_ize program:

nsr_ize [-i | -r -u] [-c | -s] [-kmnqxv>

• Use the -c option to tell nsr_ize to install or remove only the client software.

• Use the -i option to install the Backup software and associated files.

• Use the -k option to kill the Backup daemons without confirmation.

• Use the -m option to tell nsr_ize not to install or remove the Backup man pages.

• Use the -n option to tell nsr_ize not to perform actions that change the filesystem. When you use the -n option, nsr_ize prints the installation script without performing the commands.

• Use the -q option to run nsr_ize in quiet mode.

• Use the -r option to remove the Backup software and associated files.

• Use the -s option to tell nsr_ize to install or remove only the server software.

• Use the -u option to prepare your system for a Backup software upgrade. The existing Backup software is removed, but the nsr.res file, client file indexes, server bootstrap, and media database are preserved.

• Use the -v option to run nsr_ize in verbose mode.

• Use the -x option to set the debug flag.
