Each dmsN.alpha environment also can contain additional software for the
clients registered to access that environment. Section 11.2 describes how to
install software in DMS environments.
Reserve the following space in addition to space needed for the mandatory
subsets and the subsets required by DMS:
• Enough space for any layered products that you plan to install at any
time in the future
• An additional 10 percent of the required disk space to allow for file
system administration tasks and file system information
Appendix B contains worksheets for calculating the amount of space you
need for a single DMS environment. Look at the first worksheet as you read
the calculation illustrated in Table 10–1.
______________________ Note _______________________
Subset sizes in this example are for illustration only. The actual
sizes for standard operating system subsets are listed in the
Release Notes. Subset size information for layered products is
included in the product installation documentation.
Todetermine the names of the subsets you want to install, look at
to the descriptions listed in the Installation Guide.
Assume that you want to install all of the mandatory and optional subsets
plus one layered product. You need at least one DMS environment,
/var/adm/dms/dmsN.alpha.
For example, you look at the Release Notes and determine the estimated
subset sizes in Table 10–1:
Table10–1: Estimated Subset Sizes for DMS
Subsets Size in Mb
Mandatory subsets 250
All optional subsets 400
One layered product subset 50
SUBTOTAL 700
+10 percent for overhead 70
TOTAL 770
The subset sizes add up to 700 Mb. Allowing another 10 percent of this
space (70 Mb) for file system administration and information, you arrive at
a total size of 770 Mb for the /var/adm/dms/dmsN.alpha environment.
