To install SF Oracle RAC using Solaris JumpStart

1. List the SF Oracle RAC packages and their installation order.

   # cd /cdrom/dvd1/storage_foundation_for_oracle_rac

   # ./installsfrac -installpkgs

On the SF Oracle RAC DVD-ROM these packages are in the tar gzip format.

2. Copy these files on to the jumpstart server and expand them.
3. Create an admin_file on your JumpStart server with the following contents:

mail=

instance=overwrite

partial=nocheck

runlevel=quit

idepend=quit

rdepend=nocheck

space=quit

setuid=nocheck

conflict=nocheck

action=nocheck

basedir=default

4. Add a command to your JumpStart script for each of the SF Oracle RAC package using one of the following:
   • If there is no response file:

     # pkgadd -R /pathname -a admin_file -d pkg_dir package

   • If there is a response file:

     # pkgadd -n -R /pathname -a admin_file -d pkg_dir \

     -r package.response_file package

5. The following packages need empty response files:

VRTSdcli

VRTSjre

VRTSvsvc

VRTSvxvm

VRTSweb

To create an empty response file:

# touch package.response_file

6. The following packages need the following values in the corresponding response files:
