Swinstall under an different Account than root

[Roland BRUN]

Hello,
On HP-UX 11, is it possible to install a product using swinstall under a different account than root?
Do i have to modify something in the default configuration?
Thank you

you can grant permission to other users using the swacl command.

The file in question is

/var/adm/sw/security/_ACL

Hi,

Yes, it is possible. You need to give the user permissions:

swacl -l root -M user:xxx@system.hp.com:crwit
swacl -l host -M user:xxx@system.hp.com:crwit
swacl -l depot -M user:xxx@system.hp/com:crwit

Check man swacl for more information. Regards,
Mateja

Hi,

I forgot to mention that instead of xxx use the name of the user you are granting permissions.
