SolutionYou are missing the selection on the command line. That's why the UI is invoked. The command is:
swinstall -s SWDepot:depot/misc/igniteux.depot \*
The \* tells swinstall to select all the contents of the depot. There is no default so the UI is started when you don't provide a selection.
> swlist
"swlist -l depot" shows the depots that are registered on your local machine. "swlist -l depot @ SWDepot" lists the depots at the computer named: SWDepot Apparently you do not have a server named SWDepot.
> swcopy
You use swcopy (typically) to create a depot with multiple products, or to convert a tape image to a depot. The arguments are typically -s
There is no swdepot command.

Re: swcopy and swinstall
# swinstall -s SWDepot:depot/misc/igniteux.depot \*
what do you get if you add a / after the colon: for the full path?
# swinstall -s SWDepot:/depot/misc/igniteux.depot \*
but do you have server with a hostname SWDepot? as that is the server you are trying to install from
could you ping SWDepot? what are you using for hostname resolution? DNS... /etc/hosts...?
# /usr/sbin/swlist -l depot @ SWDepot
will list any depots on the system SWDepot(hostname) that are registered.
is the depot on the remote server SWDepot registered?

Re: swcopy and swinstall
Could you check the host entry & filesystem free space in the server, looks like some problem with hotname resoultion or filesystem free space,
- Check /etc/hosts on both server.
- Also check /tmp /var /usr /opt filesystems are not full and got sufficiant spce.
# bdf | grep vg00
Check the free space on the mentioned filesystems.
Cheers,
Raj.
