6 Put the patch files in the right directory. The install shell script (intall.sh) needs for you to put
the patch files in your system. For example in a Solaris SPARC workstation, if the patch file
name is 2.2_05a_patches_sparc_5.7.tar
Enter the following:
#mkdir /usr/patches
#cp 2.2_05a_patches_sparc_5.7.tar /usr/patches
#cd /usr/patches
#tar xvf 2.2_05a_patches_sparc_5.7.tar
You have now tarred the patch files in the /usr/patches directory.
Note Patches displayed here are only examples. Patches are continuously updated on Sun's web site.
Altos RAIDWatch also supports Red Hat Linux 6.1 servers and workstations.
