HP patch install remotely

deCG — Wed, 23 Aug 2006 14:00:39 GMT

We have BRS server at remote location.
I need to install update patch in BRS server.
My question is can I move file to BRS server and run it from there?
I think it could be done... Tar whole CD and ftp to BRS.

If any of you guys have done this, please let me know.

Thank you.

Shalom,

there are easier answers.

Download the cd from itrc.hp.com patching and ftp it there.

But the cd/dvd in a local drive

lets say its /cdrom

vi /etc/exportfs
/cdrom
exportfs -av

Now you can remotely install it via nfs on the remote machine.

Thanks for the tip.

I used my laptop to upload hold CD onto TEST server. I was able to install from it.
All the permissions were set correctly.

Now I am going to upload to BRS server.

Thank you.
