Use the following procedure to install the StorNext FS client software in a Sun Solaris operating
system.
Step 1 Log on as root.
This allows you to perform the installation without having permission problems.
Step 2 Install the client software.
tar xvf <filename>
pkgadd -d .
Select to add the package ‘ADICsnfs’
type y (yes, add the package)
type q (quit the pkgadd program)
Step 3 Make sure the /<usr>/cvfs/config/fsnameservers file contains the name of your
server machine.
Step 4 Create the mount points for the file systems.
mkdir -p <mount point>
chmod 777 <mount point>
Step 5 Add the following line to the /etc/vfstab file to enable automount after reboot.
<file system name> - <mount point> cvfs - auto verbose=yes
The file system name is the name that you created when you configured the StorNext FS
software using the ICW’s Add File System wizard. (Refer to the
Adding File Systems
section of this document for more information.)
