Quorum Service
A quorum service is a Windows operating system-based service created on a server distinct from the two ztC Edge servers (physical machines or PMs) running HA- or FT-protected virtual machines (VMs). Quorum servers provide data integrity assurances and automatic restart capabilities for specific failures in a ztC Edge environment. Stratus strongly recommends using quorum servers for Automated Local Site Recovery (ALSR) operation. You can configure a ztC Edge pair with 0, 1, or 2 quorum servers. Refer to Quorum Servers for more information.

Download the Quorum Service for ztC Edge systems.

ztC Edge SNMP MIB
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a standard protocol for receiving alarms, sending traps, and monitoring system status. SNMP draws upon system-defining information that is stored in hierarchically configured management information bases (MIB).
The MIB is a database of objects that can be monitored by a network management system. With ztC Edge systems running Stratus Redundant Linux (SRL) software, you need to download the MIBs if you are running SNMP. These downloads allow your SNMP network management software to decipher SNMP alarms for ztC Edge systems.
For details, see the SNMP section of the ztC Edge documentation.

Download the ztC Edge MIB.

ztC Edge VirtIO Driver Update
The VirtIO driver is installed automatically in your guest on VM creation. However, you should update the VirtIO drivers after upgrading the system software or after using the P2V client to migrate a VM or a physical machine (PM) to the ztC Edge system. Refer to Updating the VirtIO Drivers (Windows-based VMs) for details.

Download the latest VirtIO Driver.
Download the VirtIO Driver fciv.
Download the VirtIO Driver md5sum.

ztC Edge P2V Client for Virtual or Physical Machine Migration
To migrate a PM or VM directly over a network to a ztC Edge system with no intervening storage, boot the P2V client (virt-p2v) on the source PM or VM and use the client to configure, initiate, and monitor the secure network transfer from the source side. The ztC Edge system requires no configuration until after the migration is complete, but you can confirm that the migration is in progress on the Volumes page of the ztC Edge Availability Console as volumes associated with the new VM begin to appear. For details, see Creating and Migrating Virtual Machines.

Quorum Service
A quorum service is a Windows operating system-based service created on a server distinct from the two everRun servers (physical machines or PMs) running HA- or FT-protected virtual machines (VMs). Quorum servers provide data integrity assurances and automatic restart capabilities for specific failures in an everRun environment. Stratus strongly recommends using quorum servers, especially for SplitSite operation. You can configure an everRun PM pair with 0, 1, or 2 quorum servers. Refer to Quorum Servers for more information.

Download the everRun Quorum Service.

Quick EMUlator (QEMU) Guest Agent
Install the Quick EMUlator (QEMU) guest agent in your Windows-based guest operating system if you want to create application-consistent snapshots of your virtual machine (VM). For details refer to Installing the QEMU Guest.

Download the QEMU Guest Agent.

everRun Command Line Interface (AVCLI)
You can use the everRun command line interface (referred to as AVCLI) to control the system from a remote console. For details, see everRun Command Line Interface Reference.

Download the Windows avcli client.
Download the RHEL (64 bit) avcli client.
Download the Ubuntu 18.04 (64 bit) avcli client.

everRun SNMP MIB
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a standard protocol for receiving alarms, sending traps, and monitoring system status. SNMP draws upon system-defining information that is stored in hierarchically configured management information bases (MIB).
The MIB is a database of objects that can be monitored by a network management system. With everRun software, you need to download the MIBs if you are running SNMP. These downloads allow your SNMP network management software to decipher SNMP alarms for everRun systems.
For details, see the SNMP section of the everRun documentation.

everRun VirtIO Driver Update
The VirtIO driver is installed automatically in your guest on VM creation. However, you should update the VirtIO drivers after upgrading the system software or after using the P2V client to migrate a VM or a physical machine (PM) to the everRun system. Refer to Updating the VirtIO Drivers (Windows-based VMs) for details.

Download the latest VirtIO Driver.

everRun VirtIO Driver for Avance or everRun MX VM migration
For Windows-based VMs, you must install VirtIO drivers in the guest operating system before exporting the VM from an Avance or everRun MX system. If you do not install the VirtIO drivers, the imported VM crashes while booting on the everRun system. For details, see Creating and Migrating Virtual Machines. After migration is completed, Stratus recommends that you update to the latest VirtIO drivers provided above.

Stratus Java Certificate
In order to use the Avance UI without seeing warnings about unsigned Java applications, Stratus is providing a certificate for customers to download.  Please visit the following link to download the certificate file which works with Avance r4.0.0:  stratus_cert

The stratus.cer certificate can be installed by using the Java Control Panel (under Programs->Java->Configure Java in Windows).

  1. Go to the security tab, and look for “Manage Certificates…”
  2. Then pull down “Signer CA” as a “Certificate type”.  Note: make sure you select “Signer CA” rather than the default “Trusted Certificates”
  3. Click on the “Import” button.
  4. In the “Files of type:” field, pull down “All Files”.  Note: make sure you update the “Files of type:” field because the default file extensions (.csr and .p12) don’t include .cer.
  5. Select the stratus.cer file from wherever you downloaded it, and click the “open” box in the file menu. This will install the certificate.
  6. Close the windows from the Java Control Panel.
  7. Be sure to restart your browser to have the new certificate take effect.

XenConvert 2.1
Avance users must install XenConvert 2.1 to migrate a VM to Avance from either a Physical server or a Virtual Machine that is on a non-Avance platform. You must install the 32 bit or 64 bit version of this tool on the source machine using the downloadable installers provided here. For details on physical to virtual or virtual to virtual conversion see the Avance P2V, V2V and VM Cloning guide or the Avance Online Help.

Avance Command Line Interface (CLI) Client Downloads for all releases
The Avance Command Line Interface (AVCLI) provides a text-based interface for managing an Avance unit and its associated VMs. The CLI enables the user to write scripts and perform other tasks that can otherwise be done via the Avance Management Console. The CLI enables these tasks to be run from the command line of a Windows, RHEL, or Ubuntu client. Instructions for installing the AVCLI application can be found here.

Avance MIB
A Management Information Base (MIB) is a database of objects that can be monitored by a network management system. With Avance, you will need to download the MIBs if you are running SNMP. These downloads allow your SNMP network management software to decipher SNMP alarms for Avance.

Windows 2000 PV Drivers
Drivers for Windows Server 2000 (required). These drivers enhance the performance of the server instance by implementing optimized Xen specific network, storage, and system drivers.

The PV drivers included in R2.1.3.10 and later releases do not support Windows 2000. Please install these older PV drivers on Windows 2000 VMS.

Avance Linux Kernel RPM Downloads for Avance R2.1.2, R2.1, R2.0.1, R2.0.0 and R1.6.1
Linux kernel RPMs are required for all Linux Virtual Machines. Without the kernel RPMs, network connection will not stay connected during Virtual Machine migrations.

For Linux distributions other than RHEL/Centos 4u4, you will need to install the appropriate kernel RPM from the list below. These RPMs include a minimal set of patches which Avance requires for proper operation.

To apply the kernel RPM to a running Linux VM, click on the file name and save the source or binary packages for the release of Linux you installed. Then install the kernel RPM and restart the VM by typing the following commands:

# rpm -ivh -force kernel_file_name.rpm

# reboot

To install the kernel RPM at the same time you install a Linux VM, add the kernel RPM to a repository and to a kickstart file. Add a command in the following format to the post section of the kickstart file:

rpm -i http://'server_name'/'kernel_file_name.rpm'

Note: The ‹server_name› is the full URL path for the repository server
