SPARC: Example—Creating an Install Server

The following example illustrates how to create an install server by copying the CDs that are 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/cdrom0/s0/Solaris_8/Tools
# ./setup_install_server /export/install
# cd /cdrom/cdrom0/Solaris_8/Tools
# ./add_to_install_server /export/install
# cd /cdrom/cdrom0/Tools
# ./add_to_install_server /export/install
# cd /cdrom/cdrom0/s0
# ./modify_install_server /export/install /cdrom/cdrom0/s2

Note –

In this example, each CD is inserted and automatically mounted before you issue each of the commands. After you issue each command, the CD is removed.
