To Download and Update the RSC Utilities

Before You Begin

Assign an IP address, netmask and gateway to the server. You must download the RSC utilities version 2.2.3 or later to the server and run the utilities before you can configure the server's RSC.

Steps

1. Log in as root to the V490 or V890 manageable server.

2. Download the RSC version 1.2.3 utilities zip file.

   Go to http://www.sun.com/servers/rsc.html. Download the zip file appropriate for the Solaris operating system installed on the server:

   • Solaris 9 or later: rsc2.2.3_packages_s9.zip

   • Solaris 8: rsc2.2.3_packages_s8.zip

   When the download has completed, unzip the file to a temporary directory, and then change directory to the temporary directory.

3. Install the RSC version 2.2.3 packages on the manageable server.

   Install the following packages on the server using the pkgadd command:

   • SUNWrsc - the RSC base package for installation on the host machine

   • SUNWrscd - the RSC documentation package

   • SUNWrscj - the RSC GUI package to display the RSC GUI

   If you are asked whether to install conflicting files, type Y to override the existing version.

   For example:

   # pkgadd -d . SUNWrsc The following files are already installed on the system and are being used by another package: /usr <attribute change only> Do you want to install these conflicting files [y,n,?,q] y ## Checking for setuid/setgid programs Installing Remote System Control as <SUNWrsc> . . . Installation of <SUNWrsc> was successful # pkgadd -d . SUNWrscd Processing package instance <SUNWrscd> . . . Installation of <SUNWrscd> was successful # pkgadd -d . SUNWrscj Processing package instance <SUNWrscj> . . . Installation of <SUNWrscj> was successful
