Factory installation procedures for disk mirroring		35

Step 8: Install the CMS software

Step 9: Create an alternate boot device

Now you will complete the installation of the usual software by installing CMS. In general, the steps are as listed below. Detailed installation instructions can be found in CentreVu CMS R3V8 Software Installation and Setup (585-210-941).

The steps to be completed are these:

●Install CMS software

●Install CMS patches (if needed)

●Install CMS Supplemental Services software

●Set up CMS

●Install Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) software (optional)

●Set up the remote console

●Administer the NTS (if using NTS ports)

1.Enter the following command:

# ls -l /dev/rdsk/newbootdev

where newbootdev is the device name of the disk chosen as boot disk 2 (as c0t1d0s0, for example). You partitioned that disk earlier in the installation procedure.

The system responds (for example):

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 83 Jun 18 15:23

/dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s0 -> ../../devices/sbus@3,0/SUNW, fas@3,8800000/sd@1,0:a,raw

2.Record the device definition (the part after /devices and

before:a,raw). For the example above, you would record the part beginning /sbus@3,0 and ending sd@1,0.

3.Reboot the system by entering the following command:

# /usr/sbin/shutdown -y -i0 -g0

The system displays the ok prompt.

4.Create a device alias for the new boot device by entering the following command (for example):

ok nvalias bootdevice2 <device>

Replace <device> with what you recorded in item 2. For the example shown, you would replace <device> with the following:

/sbus@3,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd@2,0
