Solstice AdminSuite 2.3 Installation and Release Notes

How to Install the SunSoft Print Clients

  1. Insert the product CD into your CD-ROM drive.

    If your system is not running Volume Management, you must mount the CD with the following commands before accessing it:


    # mkdir /cdrom
# mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c0t6d0s0 /cdrom

  2. Log in as a member of the sysadmin group for that system (group 14).

    Note -

    If you are installing the software on a local system, you do not have to be a member of the sysadmin group; you can install the software as root.

  3. Verify that you are a member of the sysadmin group.


    $ groups

    If the sysadmin group is listed in the output, proceed to the next step. If not, follow the instructions in "Becoming a Member of the sysadmin Group".

  4. Change directories to the product directory on the CD.


    $ cd /cdrom/solstice_sysmgt_2_3

  5. Run the admin_install script in the product directory.

    Help is available during the installation. The main installation window shown below appears.
