How to enable a DVD as a software depot
During the installation process, two DVDs will be required. Generic instructions for making a DVD
accessible as a software depot for installation onto the Management Server are provided here. Please refe
the steps that follow for the specific DVDs that are required.
The steps to mount a DVD for use as a software depot are:
Insert DVD into the drive
Mount the DVD drive locally on that system
Register the depot on the DVD using swreg
Check the contents of the DVD using swlist
These commands can only be executed as the super user (i.e. root).
A DVD drive installed in the Management Server can be used for software installations. If the Manageme
Server does not include a DVD drive, use one of these two methods:
1. Connect a portable DVD drive to the Management Server
2. Use a HP-UX system with a DVD drive, which is network accessible from the
Management Server, as a source for installation.
For example, to mount the device /dev/dvdrom to the directory /mnt/dvdrom, execute the following
commands on the "source machine" with the DVD drive
% /sbin/mount -r /dev/dsk/xxx /mnt/dvdrom
% /usr/sbin/swreg -l depot /mnt/dvdrom
% /usr/sbin/swlist @ /mnt/dvdrom
