Installing HyperFabric

Installing the Software

 

 

Loading the Software

 

 

Listed below are the steps you must follow to load the HyperFabric software, using the

 

 

HP-UX swinstall program.

Step

1.

Log in as root.

Step

2.

Insert the software media into the appropriate drive. If the software is being loaded from

 

 

a CD-ROM, go to step 3. Otherwise, go to step 4.

Step

3.

Mount the CD-ROM drive by using this command:

 

 

mount device_name

 

 

where device_name is the name assigned to the CD-ROM drive.

Step

4.

Run the swinstall program using this command:

 

 

/usr/sbin/swinstall

 

 

This opens the “Software Selection” window.

Step

5.

Change the Source Host Name, if necessary, and then enter the mount point of the drive

 

 

in the Source Depot Path field. Select the OK button to return to the “Software

 

 

Selection” window.

 

 

The “Software Selection” window now contains a list of available software to install.

Step

6.

Highlight the HyperFabric software:

HP-UX 10.20 and 11.0: B6257AA

HP-UX 11i: HyperFabric-00

Step

7.

Choose Mark for Install from the “Actions” menu; this chooses the highlighted

 

 

software.

Step

8.

From the “Actions” menu, pull down the “Install...” menu, and then choose Install.

 

 

This begins product installation and opens the “Install Analysis” window.

Step

9.

Select the OK button in the “Install Analysis” window when the Status field displays a

 

 

“Ready” message.

Step 10. Select the YES button in the “Confirmation” window to start software installation.

 

 

swinstall loads the fileset, runs the control script for the filesets, and builds the kernel.

 

 

When the processing is finished, the “Status” field displays a “Ready” message. Select

 

 

“Done” and then the “Note” window opens.

Step 11. Select the OK button in the “Note” window to reboot. The user interface disappears and the system reboots.

Step 12. When the system comes back up, log in as root and view the /var/adm/sw/swagent.log and /var/adm/sw/swinstall.log files to view any error or warning messages that might have occurred during the installation.

Step 13. While still logged in as root, view the /etc/services file to ensure that these two HyperFabric-related lines are present:
