The R1Soft web site has great documentation on how to install their backup agent on Ubuntu here. The QuantaStor OS is built on top of Ubuntu Server LTS releases and is compatible with the packages available from R1Soft.

Here's a summary of the commands to run to install the agent on a QuantaStor appliance:

sudo -i
wget http://repo.r1soft.com/r1soft.asc
apt-key add r1soft.asc
apt-get update
apt-get install serverbackup-enterprise-agent


Note also that R1Soft doesn't have a kernel module for QuantaStor so you'll need to build it using this command:

sudo -i
/usr/bin/serverbackup-setup --get-module

You should see output like this:

Checking if module needs updated
Checking for binary module
Waiting                       /
