swinstall session hangup

Waqar Razi — Fri, 26 Dec 2008 21:21:14 GMT

I was trying to install ignite software (C.7.6.100) on a PA risc based server running hpux 11.23 from a depot on itanium based server running hpux 11.23 and I lost the telnet session. The swinstall session seems to be hanged, whenever I do swinstall command, it asks me whether I wanna use / (root) path and then gives me the following error:

aapple:/": This target or source is already in use either within this same session or by another session. A read or write lock was denied.

Can some one please guide me in this regard?

Check for other swagentd instances.
Try to stop/start daemon:

/sbin/init.d/swagentd stop/start

you can kill the swinstall process

#ps -ef | grep -i swinstall
#kill -15

then try again...

Issue the following commands to restart "swagentd" daemon, and try again:
# /sbin/init.d/swagentd start/stop

# ps -ef |grep swagentd
root 4123 1 0 22:17:07 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/swagentd -r

<-OR->
# /usr/sbin/swagentd
