swinstall question

Jun Zhang_4 — Tue, 03 Feb 2004 16:48:56 GMT

E35> swinstall -s J5000:/depot pack
was successful, but
J5000> swinstall -s /depot pack @ E35
I got the error message,
ERROR: "E35:/": You do not have the required permissions to
select this target. Check permissions using the "swacl"
command or see your system administrator for assistance. Or,
to manage applications designed and packaged for nonprivileged
mode, see the "run_as_superuser" option in the "sd" man page.
* Target connection failed for "E35:/".
Can somebody see what's wrong?

Hi Jun,

In the first case you are installing the product pack from the depot /depot from J5000.

In the second case, you are install the product 'pack' from the depot /depot on the localhost onto E35.

Unless you modify E35 to allow J5000 to run the sw-related operations, it will fail. Use 'swacl' to change the permissions on E35 to allow root from J5000 to run swinstall.

Thank you all.
For my case, can you suggest a command to allow the second action?

Hi,

If your idea is to install the software on E35 from J5000, then you need to run the command

swacl -l root -M user:root@J5000:crwit

on E35.

Then the user root on J5000 can run swinstall to install the softwares on E35.
