Problems with Remote CD install for DEC 2001 Patch Bundle

[Laurie A. Krumrey]

Hi ALL,

I'm trying to load the DEC 2001 patch bundle
remotely. On my local server (lassie) I do the
#swreg -l depot /cdrom and that works fine.

But when I go to my remote server (snoopy) and type
#swintall I put that:

Source Depot Type to Network Directory/CDROM
Source Host to My Local Host Lassie
Path /cdrom/GOLDQPK11i

I get this error on my remote host snoopy from the above swinstall:

"lassie:/cdrom/GOLDQPK11i": You do not have the required permissions |---|
| | to perform this operation. 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.

On my local host lassie I have in the /etc/exports file the following:

/cdrom -anon=65543,ro,access=snoopy

What's my problem???

Hi,

One option: As you have NFS, mount this CD on your remote machine and install from that as a local directory.

OR do an 'swcopy' the file sets and then try installing it.

Hi,

Again,

1) Kill and restart the 'swagentd' on the local and remote systems.

2) Execute the following command in the remote system:

swreg -l depot @ "hostname":/cdrom
