Installation and Verification of STREAMS/UX
Verification of Correct Installation
Verification of Correct Installation
Follow these steps to verify that the installation is correct:
1 Run the /usr/bin/pdfck command to verify that the STREAMS/UX software was
correctly installed on your system. Verification is done by checking a master
product description file (pdf), which is delivered with the fileset, against the files
just installed on the system. Run pdfck on each of the filesets that swinstall
installed:
/usr/bin/pdfck /system/STREAMS-KRN/pdf
/usr/bin/pdfck /system/STREAMS-MAN/pdf
(if fileset is installed)
/usr/bin/pdfck /system/STREAMS-RUN/pdf
/usr/bin/pdfck /system/STREAMS-PRG/pdf
(if fileset is installed)
If the installation is correct, you should only receive a prompt after running the
pdfck command. If pdfck finds a problem, it will report errors in the form of:
pathname: diff_field[(details) ][ ,...]
where diff_field is one of the field names specified in pdf(4). The fields are
pathname, owner, group, mode, size, links, version, checksum, and linked_to.
Each field is separated by a colon (:). For more information, refer to the pdf(4),
pdfdiff(1M) and pdfck(1M) man pages.
Any differences found by pdfck usually indicate installation problems. Verify
that the STREAMS software was installed properly by reviewing steps 1
through 13 in the “Loading STREAMS/UX Software” section, and redo these
steps if necessary.
2 To verify that STREAMS/UX software was properly configured into your
HP-UX kernel, run the STREAMS verification tool, strvf, by typing:
/usr/sbin/strvf
If the STREAMS software has been properly installed and configured into the
kernel, you should see the following messages:
-> Logging results to /var/adm/streams/strvf.log
