Automate FWBooster installation

Automate FWBooster installation

Last month I had to install around 25 FileWave boosters for a client in the US. I had no option other than automating it. While doing, I also thought to share it but was too busy these days. Now it's uploaded on Github, please use, improve & do whatever you please to.

Please check every line separately & understand its purpose before you run it in production.

This script will:

  1. Continuously create log at every step
  2. Configure the network proxy
  3. Download the booster
  4. Expand it
  5. Install it
  6. Create the symlink of Data Folder on another volume
  7. Restart the server
  8. Send the log file via email to you
## The core lines are listed below.

# Get it from FileWave
wget https://fwdl.filewave.com/13.3.1/FileWave_Linux_13.3.1.zip
# Undress it
unzip FileWave_Linux_13.3.1.zip
yum install -y --nogpgcheck fwbooster-13.3.1-1.0.x86_64.rpm
sudo /usr/local/bin/fwcontrol booster stop
mv /private/var/FWBooster/Data\ Folder /private/var/FWBooster/OLDDataFolder
mkdir /data/"Data Folder"
ln -s /data/Data\ Folder  /private/var/FWBooster/Data\ Folder
sudo /usr/local/bin/fwcontrol booster start

## For complete code, please visit the Github repo listed below.
