Installing TAOS ITP on Solaris

TAOS ITP is supported on Solaris versions 2.6 and later.

Caution: TAOS ITP must be used with a software package that provides a Shared Storage Option (SSO) type arbitration between machines that backup to the library. If you do not have an SSO type option, the only valid configuration is one computer per library. Without an SSO type option, data loss is likely.

To install TAOS ITP on a Solaris system:

1.Navigate to the solaris directory under the taos* directory on the CD-ROM disk.

2.Run the script install.sh.

3.Choose a directory to which the script will untar the package. This can be a temporary directory. The install script will start automatically.

4.When prompted Select package(s) you wish to process (or ’all’ to process all packages), tap Enter to install

TAOS ITP.

5.When asked if you want to continue with the installation of TAOS ITP, enter y.

6.When prompted again Select package(s) you wish to process (or ’all’ to process all packages), enter q.

7.Enter y to install and configure TAOS enabled devices.

TAOSdiscover searches for TAOS enabled devices and lists each device’s target components.

8.Enter the number of a listed device you want to install drivers for.

9.Enter the target number for all targets of this device you will want access to, or just tap Enter to select all target numbers.

10.Repeat Step 8 and Step 9 for each device you want installed.
