Install the HP Fabric Clustering System Software
This section describes the steps necessary to install HP Fabric Clustering System software. The software
must be installed on each instance of the HP-UX operating system in the fabric.
Step 1. Log on to the system as root.
Step 2. Insert the software media into the appropriate drive. If the software is being loaded from a
CD-ROM, go to step 3; otherwise, go to step 4. The software can also be located at
http://www.software.hp.com.
Step 3. Mount the CD-ROM drive by using the following command at the command prompt:
$ mount device_name
where device_name is the name assigned to the CD-ROM drive.
Step 4. Run the swinstall program using the following command:
$ /usr/sbin/swinstall
