Download the Java ES installer zip files.
Start a browser, and go to http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/get.jsp.
Choose Java Enterprise System.
Follow the instructions for downloading two zip files that together will form the CD image.
Log in as a root user to a host computer system where you want to run the installer.
Copy the Java Enterprise System installer zip files to this host computer system.
Unzip each zipped file. Example:
#ls java_es_05Q4-ga-solaris-sparc-1-iso.zip java_es_05Q4-ga-solaris-sparc-2-iso.zip # unzip java_es_05Q4-ga-solaris-sparc-1-iso.zip inflating: java_es_05Q4-ga-solaris-sparc-1.iso... # unzip java_es_05Q4-ga-solaris-sparc-2-iso.zip inflating: java_es_05Q4-ga-solaris-sparc-2.iso... |
Create three directories for mounting the .iso files. Example:
# mkdir /mnt # mkdir /mnt2 # mkdir /jes-complete
Mount the .iso files.
In the following examples, replace /download-directory/ with the path to your .iso file:
# lofiadm -a /download-directory/java_es_05Q4-ga-solaris-sparc-1.iso /dev/lofi/1 # mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/lofi/1 /mnt |
If the /dev/lofi/1 device is already in use, run this command:
# lofiadm —d /dev/lofi/1
and then retry using the lofiad -a command.
To mount the second iso file:
# lofiadm -a /download-directory/java_es_05Q4-ga-solaris-sparc-2.iso /dev/lofi/2 # mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/lofi/2 /mnt2 # lofiadm Block Device File dev/lofi/1 /export/temp/java_es_05Q4-ga-solaris-sparc-1.iso /dev/lofi/2 /export/temp/java_es_05Q4-ga-solaris-sparc-2.iso |
Copy both mounted .iso files to the same directory.
The two .iso files together form the complete JES package, so you must copy both files into the same directory. As an alternative, you can burn each ISO onto a CD, and then run the installer from a CD drive.
# cd /mnt1 # cp -r * /jes-complete # cd /mnt2 # cp -r * /jes-complete |
After you mount the .iso files and copy them to the same directory, the installer is located in the here:
/jes-complete/Solaris_sparc
In this Deployment Example, you start the installer with the -nodisplay option:
# /jes-complete/Solaris_sparc/installer —nodisplay
