Shalom,

Run as super user means you must be root.

/sbin/init.d/swagentd -r

This insures that proper daemons are running.

You may need to use swreg -l depot to register the depot if its on a remote system.

merouane,

if you are still having issues with the installation try this steps:

# /sbin/init.d/swagentd stop

# cd /var/adm/sw

# mv security security.orig

# cp â Rp /usr/newconfig/var/adm/sw/security security

# /sbin/init.d/swagentd start

then try installation again.

Regards,

Jaime.

Merouane,

This not not cause you any issues, the only thing you are doing is stopping the SD service and copying a file.

Jaime.

Hi,

there is no relation between you software depot installation and packages running on the server provided the software that you are trying to install requires that. However it is advisable to do so as in case your depot installation need reboot of the server.

Hope this helps you.

do u have the depot created locally on both nodes..

if not local depot, try running swinstall -s depotserver:/depotpath

or you can create a local depot with
swcopy -s /softwaredirectory \* @ /depotpath
