To Use lsiutil From the Command Line

Several of the procedures in this appendix use the lsiutil software at the command line.

Caution - To avoid harm to your system, you must use the commands exactly as they are presented in this document.


To run an lsiutil command from the command line, log in as root and then follow these steps:

  1. Change to the directory where you extracted the lsiutil zip file. For example,

    # cd directoryname

  2. Change to the subdirectory for your operating system. For example:

    # cd Solaris x86
