Verifying/Installing Required Versions
To prepare your Enterprise Storage RAID Array for the RAID Manager software
installation:
1. Back up your entire system according to your normal procedure.
2. Select a system user with superuser privileges (for example: root) as the
RAID administrator.
3. Login as the RAID administrator.
4. To find a filesystem with at least 500 KB free space, type:
# df -k
5. Choose a directory in which to install the SWCC software. The default is /opt,
however you may specify any directory. You will need to know this when
running the installation script.
Note: The “base directory” (referred to when installing Agent) will have a “steam”
subdirectory created under it. This is the directory where the Agent files will be
installed.
You will need approximately 500 KB of permanent space on your hard disk to
install and use Agent. If you enable logging, some additional disk space will be
used by the logfiles in the /var/adm/steam directory.
