The push installation is a full, client and server installation on Windows servers and a full server installation on Linux servers.
Appliance installations
- Installing a Linux virtual recovery appliance—Install a Linux virtual recovery appliance by installing an OVF (Open Virtualization Format) pre-packaged virtual machine or installing the software on your own pre-formatted virtual machine.
