This chapter explains how to install the Agent function of the Windows version AdvancedCopy Manager.
Note
At installation, all the nodes must be installed in the same environment (ie, the local drive name, port number, and install directory must be the same for both).
Do not install the Agent function on a shared disk.
The port number for the communication service to be specified during the installation is for communication service for local transactions. Set the port number for cluster transactions in the following location according to the operation method.
Perform the "Customization" procedure for the cluster system in "Chapter 4 Customization of Storage Management Server Transactions and Storage Server Transactions".
The flow of the installation is shown below. The node on which installation is performed first is called the primary node; the other node becomes the secondary node.
For a cascade topology, follow the procedure for the secondary node on every other secondary node.
Install the Agent function with the following procedure.

If this product is to be installed in directories other than those displayed (default directories), click the [Browse] button to select the desired directories. After all the proper directories have been selected, click the [Next] button. Note: directories with spaces their names (e.g., Program Files) must not be specified. Do not install Agent function of AdvancedCopy Manager on a shared disk.
(Secondary node)
Specify the same drive and directories as those specified for the primary node.
When one of the [Browse] buttons is clicked, the following window is displayed, allowing the selection of other than the defaulted directories:
Input the startup account to the [Register Startup Account] window.
(Primary node)
Input the account's name belonging to the Administrator's group with a password, and click the [Next] button. The account name and password must satisfy the following conditions:

If a previously unregistered name is entered, it should be registered as a new account. At this time, the system automatically sets the password to never expire, and assigns it to the Administrator's group. In addition, the system automatically sets the following user's authority to allow them to:
Log on as a service
Act as part of the operating system
Increase quotas
Replace a process level token
(Secondary node)
Specify the same account name and password as those specified for the primary node.
Input the number of the port to be allocated to the service on the [Register Port Number] window.
(Primary node)
Enter the port number to be allocated to each service within the following range:
