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. Insert the product disc with the VCS software into a drive connected to the system.

    The disc is automatically mounted.

  3. If the disc does not automatically mount, then enter:

    # mount -o ro /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

  4. Navigate to the location of the RPMs.

    Depending on the OS distribution and architecture, type the command:

    RHEL 4 (i686) 

    # cd /mnt/cdrom/rhel4_i686/cluster_server

    RHEL 4 (x86_64) 

    # cd /mnt/cdrom/rhel4_x86_64/cluster_server

    SLES 9 (i586) 

    # cd /mnt/cdrom/sles9_i586/cluster_server

    SLES 9 (x86_64) 

    # cd /mnt/cdrom/sles9_x86_64/cluster_server
