Installing SFCFS using the pkgadd command

On Solaris 10, the packages must be installed while in the global zone.

This procedure describes how to install the software on a stand-alone host. The system can be converted later to a Storage Foundation Manager managed host.

For information about obtaining and installing the SF Manager, refer to the Veritas Storage Foundation Manager Installation Guide.

To install SFCFS using the pkgadd command

Mount the software disc.

See Mounting a software disc.
Copy the supplied VRTS* files from the installation media to a temporary location. Modify them if needed.
```
# cp /cdrom/cdrom0/scripts/VRTS* \
    /tmp/pkgs
```

The -a adminfile option should be specified to pkgadd. This adminfile must be created in the current directory, and contain the following entries:

    mail=
    instance=overwrite
    partial=nocheck
     runlevel=quit
    idepend=quit
    rdepend=nocheck
    space=quit
    setuid=nocheck
    conflict=nocheck
    action=nocheck
    basedir=default

Use the product installation script to determine the list of packages and patches, and the order in which they should be installed.

For example, to install all of the packages for SFCFS, use the following command:
```
./installsfcfs -allpkgs
```
Install the packages listed in step 4.
```
#  pkgadd -a adminfile -d /tmp/pkgs pkgname.pkg
```
On Solaris 10, these packages must be installed while in the global zone. If a package's pkginfo file contains the variable SUNW_PKG_ALLZONES set not equal to true, the -G option should additionally be specified to the pkgadd command.
For example, install SFCFS 5.1 packages in the following order one at a time:
- For Veritas products that do not have the high availability components:
```
VRTSvlic.pkg VRTSperl.pkg VRTSvxvm.pkg VRTSaslapm.pkg
VRTSvxfs.pkg VRTSspt.pkg VRTSob.pkg VRTSsfmh.pkg
VRTSdbed.pkg VRTSodm.pkg VRTSfssdk.pkg VRTSat.pkg
```
- For Veritas products that have high availability components:
```
VRTSvlic.pkg VRTSperl.pkg VRTSvxvm.pkg VRTSaslapm.pkg
VRTSvxfs.pkg VRTSllt.pkg VRTSgab.pkg VRTSvxfen.pkg
VRTSvcs.pkg VRTSvcsag.pkg VRTSat.pkg VRTSspt.pkg
VRTSob.pkg VRTSsfmh.pkg VRTScutil.pkg VRTSvcsea.pkg
VRTSdbed.pkg VRTSodm.pkg VRTSfssdk.pkg VRTScps.pkg
```
Verify that each of the packages is installed:
```
# pkginfo -l packagename
```
Start the VEA server:
```
# /opt/VRTSob/bin/vxsvcctrl start
```
Use the product installer to configure the Veritas product and start the processes.
