1.4 Installing RTR for SunOS
1.4.1 Installation Procedure
Note
There are both an rtr and rtr_r (the latter is installed only on SunOS
5.6/Solaris 2.6 systems); a soft link is established to the proper one
from /usr/bin/rtr .
Both librtr_r.so and librtr.so are provided for both SunOS 5.5 and
5.6, in case there is a need to link your application with the threaded
version, but only on SunOS 5.6 will RTR itself use librtr_r.so , thus
enabling asynchronous I/O (aio) support.
1. Login as user root or su to root .
2. Use the pkginfo utility to check if you have a version of RTR already
installed:
# pkginfo -l rtr
3. If RTR is already installed on your system, see Section 2.2.4, Uninstalling
on Sun, for information on uninstalling RTR and removing related
processes.
4. Insert the CD-ROM and mount the volume at a convenient mount point
(for example, /cdrom ).
5. Install RTR from the CD-ROM directory where the kit is located, for
example:
# cd /cdrom/rtr_kit
# pkgadd -d .
• You can accept the defaults for most questions from the pkgadd utility.
• When asked for the ‘‘base directory’’, answer /opt .
• Ignore any warning about free blocks and answer ‘‘y’’ to the attached
continue question.
• When asked "Do you want to install these as setuid/setgid files
[y,n,?,q]"
, answer ‘‘y’’.
• When asked "This package contains scripts which will be executed
with super-user permission during the process of installing this
package. Do you want to continue with the installation of <rtr>
[y,n,?]"
, answer ‘‘y’’.
6. RTR is now installed in /opt/rtr .
