If the version of SD-UX on the target system is unusable, you must first load install-sd and the swagent.Z file onto your system into /var/tmp, then use install-sd to re-install SW-DIST. The install-sd utility ships in the catalog/SW-DIST/pfiles directory.

Use cp (if you are copying from a local CD-ROM) or rcp (if you are copying from a software depot on a remote system) to load install-sd onto your system.

For example, to load install-sd from a local CD-ROM mounted at /SD_CDROM into /var/tmp:

  1. Copy install-sd onto your system from the CD-ROM:

    # cp /SD_CDROM/catalog/SW-DIST/pfiles/ \    install-sd /var/tmp
  2. Copy the swagent.Z file from the CD-ROM:

    # cp /SD_CDROM/catalog/SW-DIST/pfiles/ \    swagent.Z /var/tmp
  3. Make install-sd executable:

    # chmod +x /var/tmp/install-sd
  4. Execute install-sd:

    # /var/tmp/install-sd -s /SD_CDROM

    The SW-DIST product then installs itself onto your system from the CD-ROM.
