problem with swinstall
software on K class 410 server.I mounted the cdrom directory, then specified the source depot type, then source depot host name and the source depot path. When i click ok, error message reads "no current depot software on location /cdrom/networker/may2000_nw/hpux10/networkr.pkg". i noticed that our legato version for hpux is a late version, we are on hpux11.
could this be a compatibility problem or the source depot path is not correct. Any ideas will be appreciated.
thanks.

Re: problem with swinstall
the software distributor is case sensitive. Please make sure, that you have the exact spelling to the depot file.
Are you using /cdrom or /SD_CDROM as the mountpoint?
Usually these errors can be solved by doublechecking the path you typed in.
If you are sure the spelling is correct, then you need to look into compatibility problems.
What version of legato do you try to install? is that an install cd from legato? or is that depot created by someone?

Re: problem with swinstall
If the software has an extension of 'pkg' then it sounds like it may not be a software depot that swinstall will recognize. The 'pkg' extension sounds more like a Sun Solaris file because sun uses the command pkgadd to install software.
Unfortunately not all software vendors are shipping their software for HPs in the depot form yet.

Re: problem with swinstall
Check with the following commands what the format is.
- file networkr.pkg # is it tar format?
- tar tvf networkr.pkg
If you have another depot file, perform the above to check.

Re: problem with swinstall
I brought up swinstall and specified the full path to the file (/cdrom/HPUX10/NETWORKR.PKG) and it brought it up. Everything on the CD was in upper case (I just did a mount).
I just remounted the cd using the '-o cdcase' option and all is now returned in lower case. I also just brought up swinstall, and specified the path (now /cdrom/hpux10/networkr.pkg) and it also worked fine.
