Procedures
During
Installation
This is a brief description of what happens during installation. This
information is not needed to install and use the driver but it may be
useful if any problems occur:
❑ The driver software package is added to the Solaris package
database.
❑ The driver binary is copied to /kernel/drv (or /kernel/drv/sparcv9
on 64 bit systems).
❑ The sample configuration file skge.conf is copied to /kernel/drv.
❑ The startup script S50skge for modifying network settings is
copied to /etc/rcS.d.
❑ The VLAN configuration script skge_vlan_config is copied to
/usr/sbin.
❑ The man page skge.7d is copied to /usr/share/man/man7d.
❑ The driver is added to the system and loaded with the add_drv
command.
❑ If you did not choose automatic installation, the following entries
are made for each adapter:
— a line with the IP address and interface name is added to
/etc/hosts
— a line with the network address and netmask is added to
/etc/netmasks
— a file /etc/hostname.skgeX is created, where X is the number
to which the adapter is attached. The file contains only one
line with the name of the corresponding interface.
❑ If you did not choose automatic installation, the IP interface is
started with the ifconfig command.
