A-2APPENDIX A: BOOTING THE NETBUILDER II CEC 20 SYSTEM FROM THE NETWORK

Installing To install the NETBuilder software, follow these steps:

NETBuilder Software on the UNIX NMS

1Ensure that the TFTP server on the network management station is running and has been correctly configured.

2Mount the version 10.1 software CD-ROM on the network management station. For mount instructions for your specific UNIX operating system, refer to Upgrading NETBuilder Family Software.

3Set environmental variables with the location of NETBuilder Upgrade Management Utilities. (These variables depend on the UNIX shell that is installed at your site.)

If you are using a C-shell (csh), at the prompt enter:

source /usr/3Com/common/data/.login-bcm

If you are using a Bourne (sh) or Korn (ksh) shell, at the prompt enter:

. /usr/3Com/common/data/.profile-bcm

4Ensure that you are using the version of the NETBuilder Upgrade Management Utilities that shipped with your software upgrade. To check the version you have installed, enter:

bcmdiagnose -h

The version of the installed utilities is displayed in the following message:

bcmdiagnose version 10.1. Copyright 3Com Corporation 1996

If the version of the utilities you have installed differs from the version shipped with your software package, you must first install the utilities shipped with your software package.

In the next step, the bcminstall utility extracts the files from the CD-ROM and installs them on the network management station hard disk in the /tftpboot/image/<platform>/ SWFW/<version> /<pkg> directory. For example, the software may be installed in the /tftpboot/image/NBII/SW/101/FF directory. If there is insufficient space on the disk, you can link /tftpboot to another disk.

5Using the NETBuilder Upgrade Management Utilities, install the NETBuilder software from the CD-ROM (the default) by entering:

bcminstall

The optional path parameter may also be used to install on a network management station that has two or more drives connected as well as for installing from a remote CD-ROM drive. You must explicitly specify the second CD-ROM drive.

To install a NETBuilder package from a second CD-ROM drive on a Solaris machine, enter:

bcminstall -cdrom /cdrom/cdrom1/image

After the installation is complete, the screen shows an inventory of all NETBuilder packages installed, including previous versions you have installed.
