12. Installing Sun QFS and Sun Storage Archive Manager -- Quick Start
The Sun QFS and Sun Storage Archive Manager (SAM-QFS) software uses the Oracle Solaris packaging utilities to add and remove software. The pkgadd utility prompts you to confirm various actions that are necessary to install the packages. The release packages are:
Sun QFS (file system only)
SAM-QFS (archiving and file system)
Roles contain authorizations and privileged commands. For more information about roles, see the Configuring RBAC (Task Map) section in System Administration Guide: Security Services .
See Obtaining the Release Files
Changing to the appropriate directory differs, depending on your release media, as follows:
Download — Go to the directory to which you downloaded the files.
Physical Media — Go to the directory on the physical media that corresponds to your operating system version.
For example:
# pkgadd -d . SUNWsamfsr SUNWsamfsu
For archiving to a local or shared file system, install the SUNWsamfsr and SUNWsamfsu packages.
For a local or shared file system (no archiving), install the SUNWqfsr and SUNWqfsu packages.
When prompted to define an administrator group, select yes or y to accept the default (no administrator group), or select no or n if you want to define an administrator group.
You can reset permissions on certain commands later by using the set_admin command. See Adding the Administrator Group in Sun Storage Archive Manager 5.3 Configuration and Administration Guide or set_admin(1M) in Sun QFS and Sun Storage Archive Manager 5.3 Reference Manual.
If all files installed properly, the following message appears:
Restarting the sysevent daemon
After downloading the SAM-QFS ISO image to the /tmp file, follow these steps to mount the ISO image.
# mkdir /SAM.5.3
# lofiadm -a /tmp/StorageTek_QFS_5.3.iso /dev/lofi/1
# mount -F hsfs /dev/lofi/1 /SAM.5.3
# cd /SAM.5.3/sparc
This is an example for the SPARC directory. Use the x64 directory, if the system is an x64 server.
# ls SUNWqfsr SUNWqfsu SUNWsamfsr SUNWsamfsu
For example:
# pkgadd -d . SUNWsamfsr SUNWsamfsu
For more information about the packages, see the table in Before You Begin.
To access the Sun QFS and SAM-QFS commands and man pages, modify your PATH and MANPATH environment variables.
In the Bourne or Korn shells, change the PATH and MANPATH variables in the .profile file and export the variables.
The following example shows how your .profile file might look after editing.
PATH=$PATH:/opt/SUNWsamfs/bin:/opt/SUNWsamfs/sbin MANPATH=$MANPATH:/opt/SUNWsamfs/man export PATH MANPATH
In the C shell, edit the .login and .cshrc files.
The path statement in your .cshrc file might look like the following example:
set path = ($path /opt/SUNWsamfs/bin /opt/SUNWsamfs/sbin)
The MANPATH statement in your .login file might look like the following example:
setenv MANPATH /usr/local/man:opt/SUNWspro/man:/$OPENWINHOME/share/man:/opt/SUNWsamfs/man
