Step 4. Use swinstall to install software from the Applications DVD.
The following example uses swinstall to install software from the
source mounted at /dvdrom:
swinstall -i -s /dvdrom
Refer to the swinstall (1M) manpage for details. The swinstall program
presents an interface for selecting and installing software from the DVD.
NOTE Make sure you set autoselect_patches=false when using HP-UX OE
media or network depots with multiple patch bundles. This setting
avoids the selection of patches from other patch bundles. The default use
of autoselect_patches=true may select extra patches from other patch
bundles for those products that have a dependency on PHKL_31500. Most
products only require a few patches that are delivered in the FEATURE11i
bundle. The automatic selection of other patches are not required for the
installation and support of these products with specific patch
dependencies.
Step 5. Unmount and eject the Application Software DVD.
You must unmount the DVD before you can eject it from the DVD drive.
The DVD is automatically unmounted whenever the server reboots.
Use the umount command to unmount the DVD. For example,
umount /dvdrom unmounts the /dvdrom file system. Refer to the
umount (1M) manpage for details.
NOTE After you install or update HP-UX 11i v2, the latest critical patches that
shipped with the media are installed on your system. Other
recommended critical or required patches may have become available
after the initial release of the media. On a regular basis go to the HP IT
Resource Center for any new, recommended critical patches:
