Mediant 8000
27.6.2 Installation Requirements
Installation of the Solaris™ OS on SC boards is performed via the network. The
Solaris™ OS Installation image must be placed on an Install Server that fulfills the
following requirements:
Solaris™ 8 2/02 or later
CD-ROM Drive
At least 2 Gb free disk space in the root file system
Resides on the same subnet as the Mediant 8000
AudioCodes recommends using the EMS server as the Install server.
Note: The Install server must reside on the same LAN subnet as the Mediant 8000
(i.e., it must be connected to the same Ethernet Switch).
The installation is to be performed on the SC board while it resides in the Mediant
8000 chassis. In addition, the SA/RTM must also be in place behind the SC board
during the installation process.
27.6.3 Preparing the 'Install Image' on the Install Server (EMS)
Prior to installing the Solaris OS on the SC board for the first time, the "Install Image"
must be created on the Install server (EMS). Once created, the "Install Image" may be
used for multiple SC board installations.
To prepare the 'Install Image':
1. Insert the Solaris™ 9 OS 'Install Image' CD into the Install Server's (EMS) CD-
ROM drive.
2. Login to the Install Server (EMS) via Telnet, SSH or X-terminal as the root user.
3. At the prompt, change the directory to the CD-ROM's root.
EMS-Server8:/ [root] => cd /cdrom/cdrom0
4. If there is no directory,"cdrom0", type the command, eject and try again.
EMS-Server8:/ [root] => eject
5. To run the 'install' script, at the prompt, type ./install and press Enter.
EMS-Server8:/cdrom/cdrom0 [root] => ./install
The Install image creates a /jumpstart directory that is shared over the network.
