Ralf,

To actually install the software so it can be run, you use swinstall. Use swcopy to copy it into a depot for later distribution to this or other servers.

#swinstall -s /path_to_depot/OnlineDiag_11.00.depot .

Ralf,

'swinstall'. I suggest you use TUI and point your "Source Depot Path" to /wherever/OnlineDiag_11.00.depot. It's easy.

From the command line it would be

swinstall -s /wherever/OnlineDiag_11.00.depot \*

If you want it to be available to other servers via network, then do

#mkdir /tmp/onlinediag
#cd /tmp/onlinediag
#tar xvf /wherever/OnlineDiag_11.00.depot
#touch catalog/swlock
#swreg -l depot /tmp/onlinediag

Or use "swcopy" TUI and select source as /wherever/OnlineDiag_11.00.depot and destination as /tmp/onlinediag
