If the version of SD-UX on the target system is
unusable, you must first load install-sd and the swagent.Z file onto your system into /var/tmp, then use install-sd to re-install SW-DIST. The install-sd utility ships in the catalog/SW-DIST/pfiles directory.
Use cp (if you are copying
from a local CD-ROM) or rcp (if you are copying
from a software depot on a remote system) to load install-sd onto
your system.
For example, to load install-sd from a local CD-ROM
mounted at /SD_CDROM into /var/tmp:
Copy
install-sd onto your system from the CD-ROM:
# cp /SD_CDROM/catalog/SW-DIST/pfiles/ \
install-sd /var/tmp |
Copy
the swagent.Z file from the CD-ROM:
# cp /SD_CDROM/catalog/SW-DIST/pfiles/ \
swagent.Z /var/tmp |
Make
install-sd executable:
# chmod +x /var/tmp/install-sd |
Execute
install-sd:
# /var/tmp/install-sd -s /SD_CDROM |
The SW-DIST product then installs itself onto
your system from the CD-ROM.
