Mounting the product disc

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

 To mount the product disc

1. Log in as superuser on a system connected by the network to the systems where you are installing VCS. The system that you are using to install VCS need not be part of the cluster.
2. Determine the device access name of the disc drive. For example, enter:

   # lsdev -C -c cdrom

   The output might resemble:

   cd0 Available 1G-19-00 IDE DVD-ROM Drive

   In this example, cd0 is the disc's device access name.

3. Make sure the /cdrom file system is created:

   # cat /etc/filesystems

   • If the /cdrom file system exists, the output contains a listing that resembles:

     .

     .

     /cdrom:

     dev = /dev/cd0

     vfs = cdrfs

     mount = false

     options = ro

     account = false

     .

     .

4. If the /cdrom file system does not exist, create it:

   # crfs -v cdrfs -p ro -d cd0 -m /cdrom

5. Insert the product disc with the VCS software into a drive connected to the system.
6. Mount the disc:

   # mount /cdrom

   # cd /cdrom
