Solaris Resource Manager 1.3 Installation Guide

Method A: Booting From Your Current Boot Disk

  1. Be at the boot monitor prompt, ok. If you are not, then send a break sequence to the console.

  2. Boot the system with prompt mode enabled:


    ok boot -a
    Booting from: sd(0,0,0) -a
  3. Accept the default kernel file to load and module path by pressing the Return key:


    Enter filename [kernel/unix]: <Return>
    Enter default directory for modules [/platform/SUNW,.../kernel 
    /kernel /usr/kernel]: <Return>
    SunOS Release 5.7
    
     Version ... [UNIX(R) System V Release 4.0]
  4. Type etc/system.noshrload when prompted for the name of the system file to use.

    This is an original version of your /etc/system file, as it was prior to the installation of the Solaris Resource Manager product. This copy was generated automatically when you installed Solaris Resource Manager.


    Name of system file [etc/system]: etc/system.noshrload
    
  5. Accept the defaults for the remaining questions:


    root filesystem type [ufs]: <Return>
    Enter physical name of root device [...]: <Return>

    Your system will now boot with Solaris Resource Manager disabled.
