HPUX 11i v1 & NetApp & NFS
Basically, I have a HP Application DVD mounted on the NetApp file share. I am able to NFS mount to this file share using NFS on my HPUX system. and I can browse all directories on the NFS mount point, however i am not able to get this mount to be viewed as valid for my swinstall command.
remember that the netapp_server_share currently has my HP DVD's mounted on it. I am using NFS on my HPUX server to actually access the contents of the DVD.
bdf shows:
netapp_server_share:/their_mountpoint /my_mountpoint
swinstall -s remote_server:/my_mountpoint
this is the error I receive: There is currently no depot software on host myhost at location /my_mountpoint Make sure an absolute pathname is specified for location (beginning with /")
so i try the swinstall again with /my_mountpoint/ and i still get the same message.
It does not recognize the software on the DVD? or is it the way I NFS mounted it
??
Any thoughts?

Re: HPUX 11i v1 & NetApp & NFS
This is the error I receive when i try to swreg -l depot /my_mountpoint
ERROR: Failed to register soc on "/my_mountpoint" for
system_name. "/my_mountpoint" is not a valid
depot. 08/26/08 12:39:20 EDT
I got some more info, it turns out that what i am NFS mounting to, is just a copy of the DVD that was placed on the SAN(Virtual NetAPP)
So they mounted the DVD and then did a copy to the SAN. What I am seeing is a "copy" of everything that was on the DVD..

Re: HPUX 11i v1 & NetApp & NFS
you may find you aren't "deep enough" in the directory structure, ie. the depots are down one or two levels from /my_mountpoint

Re: HPUX 11i v1 & NetApp & NFS
How did "they" copy the DVD ? Was it mounted with the correct options so it looked like a UNIX DVD or something else.
( are we assuming "they" are unix folks and know what they are doing ? )
As old_school mentioned, post the output of ls -l.
