Veritas Storage Foundation and High Availability Solutions 5.1 SP1 Getting Started Guide (5900-1498, April 2011)

If rsh is configured, use the following command:
# ./installer -rsh -precheck
If patches to the HP-UX operating system are required, the patches should be
applied prior to installing the Veritas products. Patches may be required to resolve
HP-UX kernel, product performance, or other issues. Patches may be required for
Veritas, HP-UX, or Oracle software.
The system should be in a quiescent state before adding patches.
See the product Release Notes for last minute information on recommended
patches.
You must obtain new licenses to use all of the features in the Veritas Storage
Foundation 5.1 SP1 software. Any Veritas licenses for the previous releases that
are currently installed allow you to use only a limited subset of these features.
For remote installation, or installation on multiple systems, set up remsh or ssh.
About the Veritas installer
The installer also enables you to configure the product, verify preinstallation
requirements, and view the product’s description.
If you obtained a standalone Veritas product from an electronic download site,
the single-product download files do not contain the general product installer.
Use the product installation script to install the product.
At most points during the installation you can type the following characters for
different actions:
■ Use b (back) to return to a previous section of the installation procedure. The
back feature of the installation scripts is context-sensitive, so it returns to the
beginning of a grouped section of questions.
■ Use Control–c to stop and exit the program if an installation procedure hangs.
After a short delay, the script exits.
■ Use q to quit the installer.
■ Use ? to display help information.
■ Use the Enter button to accept a default response.
Additional options are available for the installer.
