Accessing CDs and DVDs on the local system

If you want to install product components from a local CD or DVD, or a local downloaded image, complete this task.

Always consult your operating system documentation for exact details.
AIX®
  1. Log in as root. You cannot complete installation successfully if you have logged in as another ID and become root.

    You must log in as root to set up the security requirements for installing the Broker component. The installation can then be performed by a user who does not have root privileges.

  2. Complete the security setup that is described in Security on Linux and UNIX systems.
  3. Create a CD mount point directory:
    mkdir /cdbroker
    where /cdbroker is the mount point.
  4. Insert the CD into the drive of the computer on to which you want to install product components.
  5. Use SMIT to mount the CD, or use the following command:
    mount -r -v cdrfs /dev/cd0 /cdbroker
    where /dev/cd0 is the CD device and /cdbroker is the mount point.
You are now ready to install the product that is supplied on this CD.

HP-Itanium

The HP-Itanium CD has the format ISO 9660, with Rockridge extensions enabled. If volume management software is in use, the CD mounts automatically when you insert it into the CD drive. Alternatively, you can mount the CD as described in the following procedure.

If the CD is mounted incorrectly, some of the files cannot be read and the installation fails with a corrupted directory. You must mount the CD with Rockridge extensions enabled.

  1. Log in and ensure that your user ID has root authority.

    You need root level authority to set up the security requirements for installing the Broker component. The installation can then be performed by a user who does not have root privileges.

  2. Complete the security setup that is described in Security on Linux and UNIX systems.
  3. Create a CD mount point directory and grant read-only access to all users:
    mkdir /cdbroker
    chmod 775 /cdbroker
    where /cdbroker is the mount point.
  4. Insert the CD into the drive of the computer on to which you want to install product components.
  5. Mount the CD by using the following command:
    mount -F cdfs /dev/dsk/device /cdbroker
    where /device is the CD device, for example /c0t0d0 and /cdbroker is the mount point.
You are now ready to install the product that is supplied on this CD.

Linux on x86 and Linux on x86-64
  1. Log in and ensure that your user ID has root authority.

    You need root level authority to set up the security requirements for installing the Broker component. The installation can then be performed by a user who does not have root privileges.

  2. Complete the security setup that is described in Security on Linux and UNIX systems.
  3. Create a DVD mount point directory:
    mkdir /dvdbroker
    where /dvdbroker is the mount point.
  4. Insert the DVD into the drive of the computer on to which you want to install product components.
  5. Run the following command:
    mount -o ro -t iso9660 /dev/dvdrom /dvdbroker

    where /dev/dvdrom is the name of your DVD device (for example, /dev/hdc) and /dvdbroker is the mount point.

You are now ready to install the product that is supplied on this DVD.

Linux, other than Linux on x86 and Linux on x86-64
  1. Log in and ensure that your user ID has root authority.

    You need root level authority to set up the security requirements for installing the Broker component. The installation can then be performed by a user who does not have root privileges.

  2. Complete the security setup that is described in Security on Linux and UNIX systems.
  3. Create a CD mount point directory:
    mkdir /cdbroker
    where /cdbroker is the mount point.
  4. Insert the CD into the drive of the computer on to which you want to install product components.
  5. Run the following command:
    mount -o ro -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /cdbroker

    where /dev/cdrom is the name of your CD device (for example, /dev/hdc) and /cdbroker is the mount point.

You are now ready to install the product that is supplied on this CD.

Solaris
  1. Log in and ensure that your user ID has root authority.

    You need root level authority to set up the security requirements for installing the Broker component. The installation can then be performed by a user who does not have root privileges.

  2. Complete the security setup that is described in Security on Linux and UNIX systems.
  3. Insert the CD into the drive of the computer on to which you want to install product components.
  4. Enter the following command to check whether the Volume Manager is running on your system:
    /usr/bin/ps -ef | /bin/grep vold
    If the Volume Manager is running, the CD is mounted on /cdrom/vol_label automatically, where vol_label is the volume label of the current CD; for example, wmb6_sol for Runtime Disk 1.
  5. If the Volume Manager is not started, run the following commands to mount the CD:
    mkdir -p /cdbroker
    mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/cdrom /cdbroker
    where /dev/dsk/cdrom is the CD location (for example, c0t0d0) and /cdbroker is the mount point directory.

    Check where your CD is located by using the command iostat -En. Alternatively, use the volcheck command to mount a CD device automatically.

You are now ready to install the product that is supplied on this CD.

Windows
  1. Log on with a user ID that has Administrator authority.
  2. Complete the security setup that is described in Security on Windows systems.
  3. Insert the DVD into the drive of the computer on to which you want to install product components. The Launchpad opens.
You are now ready to install the product that is supplied on this DVD.
