Installing And Upgrading Isc - HP Integrity rx4610 Installation Manual

2 Installing and Upgrading ISC

The ISC installation process is designed to enable you to install the software over
several machines at once. The process also allows you to choose which ISC
features you want to include as part of the installation. For the latest ISC
installation information, refer to the README.TXT and ERRATA.TXT files that
reside on the Resource CD.
NOTE
The following list presents installation features:
1. You can install ISC on a single machine or on multiple machines during a
single installation session.
2. You can perform a local installation of ISC to any supported configuration.
3. You can interactively install ISC by using the Resource CD that comes with
your system.
4. You can install ISC using a non-interactive method called silent installation.
This method employs command-line options and an external file that directs
the installation process.
5. The installation software detects the operating system running on each target
system and determines whether each system should be used as a client
running console software or as a managed server.
Figure 1 on page 4 illustrates how you can interactively install ISC into several
managed servers and consoles. In this example, the Resource CD is loaded into a
machine running Windows NT. After loading the CD, the user selects the
machines shown in the figure; four consoles and five managed servers running
various supported operating systems. During installation, the installation software
detects the resident operating system for each machine and determines if it can
function as a client or as a managed server. In this case, the installation process
successfully installs ISC on all the systems.
The amount of hard drive space required to install ISC varies
depending on the number of components selected for
installation. To install all ISC components, be sure that the
target hard drive has between 150 and 200 Mbytes of free disk
space.
