Re: [Veritas-bu] NBU 6.5.1 Solaris Client Install

You're pushing out a custom tarball anyway so edit client_config before you do. At the top of the script, add /usr/local/bin to PATH and you should be okay.

I checked a couple of random systems here and a Solaris 10 system has /usr/bin/gunzip and a Solaris 9 system had /usr/bin/gunzip -> gzip. Other Solaris 9 and 10 systems had the link to /usr/local/bin/gunzip. I'm not sure what the real story is there or if our admins aren't being very consistent in how/where gunzip is being made available...

And another thing!

Both the update_clients and update_dbclients fail because they can't find gunzip in the PATH on the client, saying PATH is set to /usr/bin:/usr/sbin. Gunzip is in /usr/local/bin. I've tried setting the path in /etc/profile, /.profile, /.kshrc but currently to no avail and have had to bodge it by creating a symlink /usr/bin/gunzip on each client for the duration of the upgrade.

Does anyone know a way around this? Or am I missing something.

Solaris 9 clients, Solaris 9 master. (Our Solaris10 servers are OK, having /usr/bin/gunzip).

thanks, Phil
