5.2 Install Storage Manager on Linux

Installing Storage Manager on Linux is similar to Windows, with one major difference. The
failover driver known as RDAC is not included in the Storage Manager Linux installation
package - it must be installed separately from the Storage Manager package.
Storage Manager on Linux can be installed using a GUI or a text-based interface. Both
installation variants are described here. The first steps are common to all methods.
