Making a depot for oracle 9.2 on hpux 11.

[Kevin Hansen]

I'm looking at creating a depot for oracle 9.2 and wondering if anyone has tried anything along these lines before? If anyone has any examples of psf's that aren't to large I'd like to see them. This is my first crack at making my own depot and having something to reference would be helpful. Looking for any and all advice, large or small.

I use the following steps:

1. create file, /etc/pfs_fstab
2. add entry to /etc/pfs_fstab
# "device name" /cdrom pfs-rrip xlat=unix 0 0
3. run pfs daemon at the background
# nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
# nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd &
4. start nfs server
# /sbin/init.d/nfs.server start
5. mount and unmount file system
# pfs_mount /cdrom
# pfs_umount /cdrom
6. create the directory structure of the staging (depot) system
7. copy from CD or DVD to file system
# cp -r /cdrom/* .

Regards.
