Software depot shared on NFS server

[Sabrina Lautier]

Dear admins,

I've got an NFS server (NAS) which has a dedicated /shared_tools FS.
My question is: is it possible to share a depot file among several HP-UX 11.11 NFS client.

Users need gcc-3.4.2 on HP-UX 11.11 platforms: usually I compile and install any shared tool to this dedicated FS but unfortunaley I didn't manage to compile it (assembler error).

I've tried the following command with the depot file but it doesn't seem to work:
$ swinstall -x write_remote_files=true \
-s /tmp/gcc_3.4.2_hppa-hp-hpux11.11_depot gcc\
@ /shared_tools/gcc-3.4.2

as I didn't get the result I wanted...

Any help is welcome.
Many thanks.
Sabrina

Don't you think you need,

swcopy -x write_remote_files=true \
-s /tmp/gcc_3.4.2_hppa-hp-hpux11.11_depot gcc "product_name" \
@ /shared_tools/gcc-3.4.2

Hi,

I got the same result with swcopy and swinstall: I didn't get any errors but the depot was just not installed the way I wanted:

$ find /shared_tools/gcc-3.4.2
| /shared_tools/gcc-3.4.2/usr/local/bin
| ...
| /shared_tools/gcc-3.4.2/usr/local/lib
| ...
| /shared_tools/gcc-3.4.2/usr/local/man
| ...

What I would like is:
$ find /shared_tools/gcc-3.4.2
| /shared_tools/gcc-3.4.2/bin
| ...
| /shared_tools/gcc-3.4.2/lib
| ...
| /shared_tools/gcc-3.4.2/man
| ...

Any idea of how to get this ?
Rgds,
Sabrina
