Eric,
We have a script we use to install ADSM on AIX and Sun systems.  It had
support in it for older versions of HPUX and Ultrix, but we haven't kept up
with newer versions of those.  The approach is to NFS mount a filesystem
and run the script off of it.  The script prompts for questions about where
to install things, etc, but there is an option to automatically accept all
of the default settings.  In some regards, it is a bit outdated, but I will
send you a copy.  For example, we use a cron script to trim ADSM logs, as
we wrote this before there was sched/errorlogret in the Unix clients.
