Installing MLIB (TCOE Customers)
With the December 2002 release of HP-UX 11i, MLIB was temporarily
removed from the TCOE OE media. TCOE users must install MLIB from
a supplemental
HP Math Library (MLIB) CD.
Before You Begin: If you are updating from either a previous or current HP-UX 11i release,
you must remove the old MLIB software from your system prior to
installing the MLIB from the
HP Math Library (MLIB) CD. To remove
MLIB, use the following command:
# swremove -x loglevel=2 MLIBPROD
To Install MLIB: Use the following steps to install MLIB from the HP Math Library (MLIB)
CD:
Step 1. Start the swagentdt daemon by running the following command
/usr/sbin/swagentd
Step 2. Insert the HP Math Library (MLIB) CD in your CD/DVD drive and wait
for the drive’s busy light to stop blinking.
Step 3. Find the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM device file name:
ioscan -f -C disk | more
/dev/dsk/c1t2d0 is a typical CD-ROM device name.
Step 4. Create the directory under root(/):
CD-ROM: mkdir /cdrom
DVD: mkdir /dvdrom
Step 5. Mount the CD or DVD onto the new directory as a file system. For
example:
CD-ROM: mount /dev/dsk/c1t2d0 /cdrom
