Installing Standalone CGTP Without the Reliable Boot Service on the Solaris OS

This chapter describes how to install the standalone CGTP patches and packages on the Solaris OS.

You must perform the procedures on each node on which you want to use standalone CGTP. Do not perform these procedures on a node on which you are using the Foundation Services. Perform the procedures in the order presented.

For more information, see these sections:


Installing the CGTP Patches



Note - Refer to the Netra High Availability Suite 3.0 1/08 Foundation Services README to determine which patches need to be installed, if any, for the version of Solaris OS used at your site.



procedure icon  To Install the CGTP Patches

Before installing the CGTP patches, you must have installed the Solaris Operating System.

  1. As superuser, log in to the node on which you want to install standalone CGTP.

  2. Install the patches, using the following command to install each patch:


    # patchadd software-distribution-dir patch-number
    

    software-distribution-dir is the directory containing the Netra HA Suite patches and packages. For a list of patches required for the CGTP, see Netra High Availability Suite 3.0 1/08 Foundation Services README.

    For more information on patchadd, see the patchadd1M man page.

    After successful installation, the following message is displayed:


    Checking installed patches...
    Verifying sufficient filesystem capacity (dry run method)...
    Installing patch packages...
    Patch number patch-number has been successfully installed.
    See /var/sadm/patch/patch-number/log for details
    

  3. Verify that the patches were successfully installed:


    # patchadd -p
    

    If installation was successful, the following message is displayed:


    Patch patch-number Obsoletes:  Requires: Incompatibles: 
    Packages: SUNWcarx SUNWcsr SUNWcsu SUNWhea SUNWcsxu SUNWmipu
    


Installing the CGTP Package

procedure icon  To Install the CGTP Package

Before installing the CGTP package, you must have installed the Solaris Operating System and the CGTP patches.

  1. As superuser, log in to the node on which you want to install standalone CGTP.

  2. Install the CGTP package:


    # pkgadd -d software-distribution-dir SUNWnhas-cgtp
    

    software-distribution-dir is the directory containing the Netra HA Suite patches and packages.

    For more information on pkgadd, see the pkgadd1M man page.

    The installation of the SUNWnhas-cgtp package begins as follows:


    Processing package instance <SUNWnhas-cgtp> from <software-
    distribution-dir>
    Netra HA Suite Sun CGTP(sparc) 3.0,REV=11
    Copyright 2006 Sun Microsystems, Inc.  All rights reserved.
    Use is subject to license terms
    Using </> as the package base directory.
    ## Processing package information.
    ## Processing system information.
    14 package pathnames are already properly installed.
    ## Verifying package dependencies.
    ## Verifying disk space requirements.
    ## Checking for conflicts with packages already installed.
    ## Checking for setuid/setgid programs.
    This package contains scripts which will be executed with super-
    user permission during the process of installing this package.
    

  3. When the system asks if you want to continue with the installation of the SUNWnhas-cgtp package, type y:


    Do you want to continue with the installation of <SUNWnhas-cgtp> [y,n,?] y
    

    The following messages are displayed:


    Installing Netra HA Suite Sun CGTP Drivers as <SUNWnhas-cgtp>
    /etc/opt/SUNWcgha/init.d/cgtpfilter
    /kernel/drv/cgtp
    /kernel/drv/cgtp.conf
    /kernel/drv/sparcv9/cgtp
    /kernel/strmod/cgtp_flt
    /kernel/strmod/sparcv9/cgtp_flt
    [ verifying class <none> ]
    [ verifying class <manifest> ]
    ## Executing postinstall script.
    exit status = 0
    devfsadm[1006]: verbose: symlink /dev/cgtp ->
    ../devices/pseudo/clone@0:cgtp
    Driver (cgtp) installed.
    Installation of <SUNWnhas-cgtp> was successful.
    

  4. Verify that the packages have been correctly installed:


    # pkginfo | grep SUNWnhas-cgtp
    

    If the installation was successful, you see the following output:


    system   SUNWnhas-cgtp Netra HA Suite Sun CGTP
    

  5. Reboot the node.



    Note - For information about rebooting a node, see the Netra High Availability Suite 3.0 1/08 Foundation Services Cluster Administration Guide.
