Mounting the software disc

You must have superuser (root) privileges to load the Veritas software.

 To mount the software disc

  1. Log in as superuser.
  2. Place the Veritas software disc containing your product into a DVD drive connected to your system.
  3. If Solaris volume management software is running on your system, the software disc automatically mounts as /cdrom/cdrom0.
  4. If Solaris volume management software is not available to mount the DVD, you must mount it manually. After inserting the software disc, enter:

    # mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c0t6d0s2 /cdrom

    where c0t6d0s2 is the default address for the disc drive.
