procedure icon  To Mount the CD-ROM From a Remote Server

1. As superuser of the remote system, open a shell window.

2. Insert the Sun Ray Server Software 3 CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.

If a file manager window opens, close it. The file manager CD-ROM window is not necessary for installation.

3. Share the Sun Ray CD-ROM file system:


# share -o ro /cdrom/cdrom0

4. Use the rlogin command to log into the Sun Ray server as the root user:


# rlogin sunray-server-name -l root
Password:

Where sunray-server-name is the host name of the Sun Ray server.



Tip - To enable remote login, comment out the line containing pam_security.so in the /etc/pam.d/login file.



5. Create the CD-ROM file system mount point:


# mkdir -p /cdrom/cdrom0

6. Mount the remote CD-ROM drive:


# mount -o ro cd-server-name:/cdrom/cdrom0 /cdrom/cdrom0

Where cd-server-name is the host name of the server with the Sun Ray CD-ROM.

7. Return to the point where you referenced this procedure.


procedure icon  To Unmount the CD-ROM From a Remote Server

1. From the shell window where you mounted the CD-ROM, unmount the CD-ROM file system:


# cd /
# umount /cdrom/cdrom0

2. Close the rlogin session:


# exit

3. Unshare the CD-ROM file system:



Note - This procedure is for Solaris only.




# unshare /cdrom/cdrom0
