Mounting a software disc

Veritas software is provided on a DVD format disc. If you have the media kit, then get the software disc from the media kit.

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. Insert the disc and enter the following command:

    # mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c0t6d0s2 /cdrom/cdrom0

    where c0t6d0s2 is the default address for the disc drive.

  5. Change to the appropriate directory and product subdirectory to view the product release notes and installation guides, or install the products.
