C.4.2 Performing Upgrade with Silent Installation Procedure

The procedure of the silent upgrade installation are as listed below.

  1. Insert the DVD "ETERNUS SF SC/ACM Mediapack for Solaris (V16.9 or higher) Manager Program (2/2)" or "ETERNUS SF SC/ACM/Express Mediapack for Linux 64bit (V16.9 or higher) Manager Program (2/2)" of this version into the DVD drive.

  2. Mount the DVD media.

    • Example for Solaris environments

      # mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c0t4d0s0 dvdMountPoint

      The device name of the DVD drive may differ depending on the device. In this example, the device name of the DVD drive is mounted as "/dev/dsk/c0t4d0s0".

    • Example for Linux environments

      # mount -t iso9660 -r /dev/cdrom dvdMountPoint

      The device name of the DVD drive may differ depending on the device. In this example, the device name of the DVD drive is mounted as "/dev/cdrom".

  3. Execute the following silent installation shell script.
    For installLogFile, specify the file in which to output installation log with an absolute path. It is optional to specify for installLogFile.

    # dvdMountPoint/Manager_unix/esfsilentinstall.sh -eula agreed [-l installLogFile]

    Point

    • The -eula option is specified to agree to licensing. Only when "agreed" is specified for option parameter is installation enabled. The -eula option must be specified before other options.

    • If nothing is specified for installLogFile, an install log file named "esfsilentinstall.log" is created in the /var/tmp directory.

    • If there is any file of the same name as the specified install log file, it is overwritten.

    • It is required to specify an existing directory with write permission for the directory in which to store the install log file. If it has no write permission, no error message is output in the command prompt or screen and the process terminates with error.

    • If the paths to the install log file contain any spaces, they should be surrounded by double quote characters.

    • The characters " ! $ are not supported for path name for install log file.

    Note

    • If an invalid option is specified, its corresponding error message is output in the install log file and the process exits. No error message is output in the command prompt or screen.

    • Do not execute multiplexly the command for silent installation. If it is multiplexly executed, the command executed after that terminates abnormally. At this time, an install log file is not created.

    • During an update, it is not possible to specify an installation parameter file for the command. In the case that a file has been specified, the command terminates in an error.

  4. On completion of installation, a command prompt is displayed.

  5. Unmount the DVD media.

    # umount dvdMountPoint
  6. Eject the DVD media used for the Upgrade Installation from the device.

Confirming the Results of the Silent Upgrade Installation

Check the return value from the silent installation command. If necessary, check the install log file. However, if the return value from the silent installation command is 3 or 9, an install log file is not created. For details, refer to "Return Values for Silent Installation (for ETERNUS SF Manager, AdvancedCopy Manager CCM)" in the Installation and Setup Guide.

The installation result can be viewed in the install log file, too.
Open the install log file to see "ResultCode" in the ResponseResult section. In "ResultCode" is written the return value from the silent installation command.

The upgrade is complete above.
