2. Run swremove to remove the configured product.
• After the unconfiguration and removal completes, check the
${SW_ROOT_DIRECTORY}var/adm/sw/swagent.log file for any
problems, either in the unconfigure script or the format/contents
of the messages generated by it.
• Study the resulting file system to see if the unconfigure script
performed the expected “undo” actions.
3. Run swinstall to install the full product again. Set the
defer_configure option to “false” to avoid executing the configure
scripts.
• After the installation completes, run swconfig to configure your
product.
• Study the resulting file system to see if the configure script
performed the expected actions.
• Test the product itself to see if the necessary configuration tasks
were performed such that the product is ready to use.
• Now run swconfig -u to unconfigure your product.
• Study the resulting file system to see if the unconfigure script
performed the expected “undo” actions.
• Run swconfig again to re-configure your product.
• Study the resulting file system to see if the configure script
performed the expected actions.
4. Run swverify to execute the verify script(s).
• After the verification completes, check the
${SW_ROOT_DIRECTORY}var/adm/sw/swagent.log file for any
problems, either in the verify script or the format/contents of the
messages generated by it.
5. If a previous version of the product can be updated to this version,
then re-run the first test by updating this product to a system where
the previous version has been installed and configured.
6. Note that configure and unconfigure scripts are never run unless the
${SW_ROOT_DIRECTORY} is /. However, verify scripts are run in both
cases.
