From a UNIX client running NFS Client version 2 or 3, you must install the files from the CD to the filer by performing the following steps.

NOTE: An NFS license must be purchased and registered on the filer to proceed. To register the NFS license, enter the following command from the filer console:

filer>license nfs=<license number>

where <license number> is the provided NFS license.

To access the system files from the CD and install them on the filer, perform the fol- lowing steps:

1.Mount the filer’s root file system to a directory on the client. For example, enter:

mount filer:/ /mnt

where /mnt is the directory on the client where you want to mount the filer’s root file system.

2.Change the directory to a local temporary directory on the client system. For example, enter:

FG￿/tmp

where /tmp is a local temporary directory on the client.

3.Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive and extract the files, specifying the input file, output file, and block size. For example, enter:

tar xvf /CD-ROM_MNT_PT/ontap/5_3/alpha/sysfiles.tar where CD-ROM_MNT_PT is the name of your CD mount point.

Result: The tar command reports the names of the files that are copied (tar_image.Z and dell_filer_install).

4.Run the dell_filer_install script with an argument that tells the script where to install the files; this is the mount point for the filer’s root directory. You can keep or delete the tar files.

‡To delete the tar files, enter:

./dell_filer_install /mnt

‡To keep the tar files, enter:

./dell_filer_install -k /mnt

where /mnt is the directory on the client where you mounted the filer’s root file system.

Result: The install script decompresses and extracts files.

5.From the client system, unmount the filer’s root file system (/) by entering the fol- lowing commands:
