Nortel Networks 380-24F manual Installing the JRE in a SunOS/Solaris environment

Chapter 2 Installing Device Manager software 31

6Change the user to root and run the script by entering: su root

./pinst -cj

7The patch installation can take up to several hours to complete, during which time, your system should be in a quiet state with a minimum of activity. When installation is complete, you can check the installation log by entering:

more /var/sadm/install_data/Solaris_8_Recommended_log

Note: An error message indicating a patch failure of type 8 means that the package for which the patch is intended is not installed on your system. You do not need to take any action in response to this error message.

8Use the localcheck Perl script again to determine if all JRE patches were installed successfully by entering:

perl localcheck

9Use the install script pinst to remove install files that are no longer needed by entering:

./pinst -r

The script cannot remove itself and does not remove the patch bundle. You may remove these files by entering:

rm pinst

rm jre131_solxx_patchBundle.tar where:

xx is 56, 57, or 58

After you install the Solaris patches, you must install the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) for Solaris systems.

Installing the JRE in a SunOS/Solaris environment

To install the JRE in a SunOS/Solaris environment:

1Copy the j2re-1_3_1_03-solsparc.sh UNIX script file from the Web site into a directory. This example uses the /tmp directory. If you use a different directory, adjust your paths accordingly.
