Can not unmount cd-rom during installation of Oracle 9i

[V. Nyga]

Hi,

they are always three patches:
For 11.11 you need
PHCO_25841, PHKL_26269, and PHKL_43153.

Just search for 'rock' in patch database:

I'm having a problem while installing the PHKL_26269 patch:
---

# swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true \
> -s /tmp/PHKL_26269.depot

======= 01/21/07 07:22:24 MET BEGIN swinstall SESSION
(non-interactive) (jobid=testserver.domein1.nl-0019)

* Session started for user "root@testserver.domein1.nl".

* Beginning Selection
* Target connection succeeded for "testserver.domein1.nl:/".
NOTE: The patch match operation failed to find patches for target
software on "testserver.domein1.nl" which passed the filter.
NOTE: Cannot continue the "swinstall" task.

======= 01/21/07 07:22:38 MET END swinstall SESSION (non-interactive)
(jobid=testserver.domein1.nl-0019)
--

What is happening here?

Regards,
Chris

Hi CHris:

Try downloading the patch (again) from the ITRC patch database. It is possible that your depot is corrupt.

It looks like you missed the product selection, a common oversight.

swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true -s /tmp/PHKL_26269.depot

At the end of the command line, add \* which means: install all items in the package. Or if you like typing, add the name of the product: PHKL_26269

All depot files are tar archives so you can verify that a download was successful with a tar tvf command:

tar -tvf /tmp/PHKL_26269.depot

I've downloaded the patch again. Still the same problem.

Download looks good:

# tar -tvf /tmp/PHKL_26269.depot

# swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true \
> -s /tmp/PHKL_26269.depot \*

did indeed the job.

HP writes something else to do here: http://www5.itrc.hp.com/service/patch/patchDetail.do?patchid=PHKL_26269&sel={hpux:11.11,}&BC=main|search|#Installation%20Instructions:

Is that an error?

[Chris2005]

Yessss!!!

Unmounting is working now while installing Oracle 9i with multiple cd-roms.

Thank you all very much for the great support!

pfs_mount/pfs_umount definitely can't do the job.

Chris
