Gretchen,
Hello!
I just tried installing using the -R option and it worked fine.
I install tsm to the default directory and run the library manager from it.
Then I install to other directories and run server in those; I currently have 4
alternate installations.
The command I used is -
pkgadd -a /opt/tsmmisc/adminfile -R /opt/tsminst/1a -d $IN
where $IN is the directory with the packages in it. I get prompted
to enter a base directory.
Hope this helps,
Bill Colwell
