Mounting the product disc

You must have superuser (root) privileges to load the SF Oracle RAC software.

You can unmount the product disc after completing the SF Oracle RAC installation.

To mount the product disc

  1. Log in as the superuser to a cluster node or a remote node in the same subnet as the cluster nodes.

  2. Insert the product disc with the SF Oracle RAC software into a drive that is connected to the system.

  3. If Solaris volume management software is running on your system, the software disc is automatically mounted.

  4. If Solaris volume management software is not available to mount the disc, you must mount it manually. After inserting the software disc, enter:

    # mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/cXtXdXs2 /dvd_mount

    Where c0t6d0s2 is the default address for the disc drive.

  5. Navigate to the location of the packages:

    # cd /dvd_mount/storage_foundation_for_oracle_rac
