Complete these instructions to load the pre-upgrade program.
To make a CD-ROM directory:
If a CD-ROM directory does not already exist, make one by entering:
cd / mkdir cdrom |
Insert the D3 CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
Mount the CD-ROM by entering:
mount -v cdrfs -r /dev/cd0 /cdrom |
NOTE |
The CD-ROM name on the system can usually be obtained by executing the command: ls /dev/cd* |
Verify that the CD-ROM has been mounted by displaying the CD contents. Enter:
ls /cdrom |
Confirm that the file D3.tar is included in the list.
Use the tar command to transfer the installation files from the distribution media to the /tmp directory. Enter:
cd /tmp tar xvf /cdrom/D3.tar |
The system loads a series of files and returns to the shell prompt.
The screen looks similar to:
# tar xvf /cdrom/D3.tar x D3_ssn 512 bytes, 1 media blocks. x D3_setup 7223 bytes, 15 media blocks. x D3_setup_mv 856 bytes, 2 media blocks. x D3_copyright 343 bytes, 1 media blocks. x D3_ugf, 65536 bytes, 128 media blocks. x D3_install-rs-9.1-.Z,777733 bytes, 1520 media blocks. x D3_monitor-rs-9.1-.Z, 589599 bytes, 1152 media blocks. x D3_flash-rs-9.1-.Z, 3342554 bytes,6529 media blocks. x D3_sql-rs-9.1-.Z, 250525 bytes, 490 media blocks. x D3_abs-rs-9.1-.Z, 815485 bytes, 1593 media blocks. x D3_datafiles-rs-9.1-.Z, 3297735 bytes, 6441 media blocks. # |
When the tar command completes, the system returns to the shell prompt.
To unmount the CD-ROM:
Unmount the CD-ROM. Enter:
umount /cdrom |
Remove the CD from the CD-ROM drive.
To transfer the upgrade files from the distribution media to the tmp directory use the tar command:
Create a destination directory into which the upgrade files will be loaded. The example below shows that the chosen directory is /ugf. Enter:
mkdir ugf cd ugf |
Transfer the upgrade files. Enter:
tar xvf /tmp/D3_ugf |
WARNING |
The ugf directory must be a subdirectory of /tmp. |
A screen similar to the example below displays:
# cd ugf # pwd /tmp/ugf # tar xvf /tmp/D3_ugf x list-device, 6 bytes, 1 media blocks. x t-stat, 6 bytes, 1 media blocks. x t-link, 6 bytes, 1 media blocks. x t-act, 6 bytes, 1 media blocks. x t-det, 6 bytes, 1 media blocks. x t-att, 6 bytes, 1 media blocks. x :t-select, 6 bytes, 1 media blocks. x 1705, 63 bytes, 1 media blocks. x abs.frames, 5 bytes, 1 media blocks. x t-select, 12558 bytes, 25 media blocks. x set-device, 756 bytes, 2 media blocks. x 1717, 48 bytes, 1 media blocks. x mode, 18 bytes, 1 media blocks. x pre-upgrade, 4334 bytes, 9 media blocks. x do-pre-upgrade, 285 bytes, 1 media blocks. x upgrade, 17888 bytes, 35 media blocks. x update.fsi.host, 530 bytes, 2 media blocks. |
When the tar command completes, the system returns to the shell prompt.
Return to D3. Enter:
exit |
