SPARC: Example--Creating an Install Server

The following example illustrates how to create an install server by copying the CDs labeled Solaris 8 Software 1 of 2 SPARC Platform Edition, Solaris 8 Software 2 of 2 SPARC Platform Edition, Solaris 8 Languages SPARC Platform Edition, and Solaris 8 Installation Multilingual SPARC Platform Edition to the install server's /export/install directory:

# cd /cdrom/sol_8_sparc#2/s0/Solaris_8/Tools
# ./setup_install_server /export/install
# cd /cdrom/sol_8_sparc_2#1/Solaris_8/Tools
# ./add_to_install_server /export/install
# cd /cdrom/sol_8_lang_sparc#2/Tools
# ./add_to_install_server /export/install
# cd /cdrom/en_icd_sol_8_sparc/s0
# ./modify_install_server /export/install /cdrom/en_icd_sol_8_sparc/s2

In this example, each CD is inserted and automatically mounted before and removed after each of the commands shown above.
