setup_install_server(1M)

add_install_client(1M)

add_to_install_server(1M)

rm_install_client(1M)

You must be in the admin role, at label ADMIN_LOW, in a terminal where the command is in a profile assigned to the admin role.

If the admin role does not have this /pathname/*install* command in its assigned profiles, the secadmin role, at label ADMIN_LOW, must add it to the Custom Admin Role profile.

For the procedure, see "Modifying a Role's Rights".

mount(1M)

The admin role, at label ADMIN_LOW, runs this command.

If you are mounting a CD-ROM or diskette on an installed system, the admin role must allocate the device at a particular label, usually ADMIN_LOW. When the medium is removed, the device must be deallocated.
