How to install MirrorDisk/UX(B2491BA) via command line?

I am a problem with install MirrorDisk/UX(B2491BA) via command line.

swlist is OK:

# swlist -s /SD_CDROM/ B2491BA
# Initializing...
# Contacting target "myserver"...
#
# Target: myserver:/SD_CDROM/
#

# B2491BA B.11.11 MirrorDisk/UX
B2491BA.LVM B.11.11 LVM

but swinstall no:
# swinstall -x codeword="mycodeword" -x customer_id=mycustomerid \
> -x autoreboot=true -s /SD_CDROM/ B2491BA \*

* Beginning Analysis and Execution
* Session selections have been saved in the file
"/.sw/sessions/swinstall.last".
* "myserver:/": 250 filesets have the selected revision already
installed.
WARNING: "myserver:/": 1 check scripts had warnings.
* "myserver:/": 2 software objects had their check script
return the code indicating that the software will be excluded
from further processing.
ERROR: "myserver:/": The software dependencies for 7 products or
filesets cannot be resolved.
ERROR: "myserver:/": This operation will exceed the absolute limit
of disk space on 1 volumes.
* "myserver:/": 43 bundles have the selected revision already
installed.
* The analysis phase failed for "myserver:/".

NOTE: More information may be found in the agent logfile using the
command "swjob -a log myserver-0013 @ myserver:/".

Use like,

# swinstall -x codeword="mycodeword" -x customer_id=mycustomerid -x autoreboot=true -s /SD_CDROM/ B2491BA

it will lead to interactive console as like sam. Select sd package and make action of analysis. May be a problem disk space and dependency softwares.

Hello,

First of all, check swjob -a log myserver-0013 @ myserver:/

It will provide a detailed error/warning information,

hi,

Check the logs like you have been asked to do for more detailed information on why it failed.

but from this line

ERROR: "myserver:/": This operation will exceed the absolute limit
of disk space on 1 volumes.

Its looks like you may not have enough room to install the product.

Check your lvols for space.

You may need to extend /var and /opt

If you cannot read the logs then just run swinstall
#swinstall
This will load a TUI for you to navigate and install the codeword and then the software.

You can view the logs from here aswell if needed.

Shalom,

If you manually add the codeword to the /var/adm/sw/.codewords file the directory should become visible and a normal command line installation should work.
