suxus004 # ./InstallAtdd
The install script helps you to install the atdd and tapeutil packages.
Check if ATDD is installed on your system ...
The ATDD isn't installed in the current kernel.

Enter the directory where ATDD is located (f.g, /tmp) /var/spool/sw
Enter the filename of the ATDD installed (e.g, atdd.1.7.8.5 or atdd.1.7.8.5.bin) atdd.5.5.0.74.bin
Do you install the tapeutil utility with atdd on your system (y/n)? y
Enter the directory where the tapeutil is located (f.g, /tmp),
or hit the "Enter", if it is in the same directory with the atdd.
Enter the filename of the tapeutil (e.g, tapeutil.hpux.4.0.3.0 or tapeutil.hpux.4.0.3.0.bin) tapeutil.hpux.4.4.0.0.bin

Start installing the tapeutil and atdd packages ...

Check if tapeutil is already installed on the system ...
The tapeutil utility isn't installed in the system.

Copy the new tapeutil package to the software depot first ...

ERROR: The swcopy or swinstall command will not convert a target with
layout_version 0.8 into 1.0 even if the layout_version option
has the default value of 1.0. You should copy/install 1.0
software into a 1.0 target or set the layout_version option to
0.8.
If you want to convert software in an existing 0.8 target into
layout_version 1.0, you must first set the target
layout_version attribute to 1.0 using the command "swmodify -a
layout_version=1.0 @ ".
If you want to convert just the selected 1.0 software to
layout_version 0.8, you can specify the "-x
layout_version=0.8" option.
Note by converting 1.0 software to layout_version 0.8, you
will lose any new 1.0 attributes which can corrupt the
software if it depends on 1.0 attributes.
ERROR: Cannot continue the Analysis Phase until the previous errors
are corrected.

Did you try using swmodify to change the layout version as your reply mentioned?

You may have to swcopy your tape depot to another directory depot before you use swmodify?

[Sandeep_Chaudhary]

i have run swmodify and installation completed smoothly.
