Noob question - install and run Veeam Agent

[itm60]

I've downloaded and tried to install and run this on my Lubuntu 16.10 system, but it doesn't seem to have installed correctly.

Code: Select all

$:~/Downloads$ sudo dpkg -i veeam-release-deb_1.0.1_amd64.deb
(Reading database ... 158528 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack veeam-release-deb_1.0.1_amd64.deb ...

Setting up veeam-release-deb (1.0.1) ...

Code: Select all

$ sudo apt-get install -fReading package lists... Done

Nothing seems to get installed, and "veeam" and "veeamconfig" are not recognised as valid commands.

Could anyone advise on the correct way to install and run this?

You should run apt-get install veeam command instead. Please refer to this page for details.
Thanks

Hmmm...still no luck. Here's what is happening:

U need to run sudo apt-get update before doing sudo apt-get install veeam. The repository is now added but the cache needs to be updated therefor you need to update it with the first command.

Hello

I have downloaded latest version of Linux Agent Free to use on Linux mint 18.3

First of all this file is only 4,3 kB : https://www.veeam.com/linux-backup-free-download.html I choose MINT x64

Here u have original full fight files: http://repository.veeam.com/backup/linu ... m/v/veeam/

Please check if i'm right. It's a mistake on veeam official download site

The 4.3kb package will add the repository to your list and add certificates so you can install it using ‘apt-get install veeam’. More information can be found in our userguide: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/agent ... tml?ver=20
