1. You can download the Acronis Agent for Linux installer directly using the following command:
sudo wget https://dl.managed-protection.com/u/baas/4.0/12.0.3957/Backup_Agent_for_Linux_x86_64.bin2. Grant necessary permissions for the installer:
# sudo chmod 755 Backup_Agent_for_Linux_x86_64.bin3. Install rpm:
# sudo apt-get install rpm4. Download latest updates:
# sudo apt-get update5. Launch the installer as root:
# sudo ./Backup_Agent_for_Linux_x86_64.binThe installer installs old SnapAPI version 0.7.95. We will have the new version embedded with the installer in the upcoming new release, early next month.
As a workaround, I had to manually install the latest SnapAPI drivers. But will be fixed in the upcoming build and the installation should work fine without issues.
Copy the provided snapapi26_modules-0.7.101-1.noarch.rpm to the Ubuntu server using WinSCP.
6. Install alien on the server to convert rpm to deb:
7. Convert the rpm package to deb:
# sudo alien snapapi26_modules-0.7.101-1.noarch.rpmIf the system did not get updated during software update.
8. Install and compile new version of snapapi -v 0.7.101:
# sudo dpkg -i snapapi26-modules_0.7.101-2_all.deb# sudo dkms ldtarball --archive /usr/lib/Acronis/kernel_modules/snapapi26-0.7.101-all.tar.gz
# sudo dkms {add,build} -m snapapi26 -v 0.7.101 --no-clean-kernel
# sudo dkms {build,install} -m snapapi26 -v 0.7.101 --no-clean-kernel
9. Check if the agent is installed successfully by running the command:
