Thanks for your help

[Steven E. Protter]

If this is a command line install, I need to see the command line to properly assist.

/sbin/init.d/swagentd -r

restart the daemon for swagent.

Also look at this file:
/var/adm/sw/swagentd.log

After restarting swagentd daemon, please try the installation again.

Also if this is an swcopy command, it could by a syntax error. An itrc search for swcopy will yeild you hundreds of posts that can assist in this case.

Hi Steven
I resolved the problem now
1, # sh PHCO_29960
2, #swintall -s /tmp/PHCO_29960.depot
3, In the installation interactive interface, choose "change option"--> choose"all targets to resolve the source locally " ,and then 'install' .

thanks again for Steven
