VCS package dependencies
- 14 years ago
Hello,
VRTSperl , VRTScpi & VRTSvlic are the 3 foundation packages for any veritas SF suite product, so they lie at bottom of the chain. These 3 packages are must for any SF suite product install.
Regarding package dependencies, well there are lots of changes in the product versions (for e.g 5.1 & 5.0), 5.1 as very less number of packages comparing to 5.0. I remember install guides use to have chapter where it will list dependencies (not exactly which package depends on which package but a sort of order of package installation which may help a bit)..
I would suggest to have a look at install guides... you can find the install guides here:
https://sort.symantec.com/documents (select appropriate OS & VCS version you are using & go to product guides)
For e.g from a SF 5.1SP1 VCS install guide located here:
https://sort.symantec.com/public/documents/sfha/5.1sp1/solaris/productguides/pdf/vcs_install_51sp1_sol.pdf
page no. 212
Viewing the list of VCS packages
During the VCS installation, the installer prompts you with an option to choose
the VCS packages to install. You can view the list of packages that each of these
options would install using the installer command-line option.
Manual installation or upgrade of the product requires you to install the packages
in a specified order. For example, you must install some packages before other
packages because of various product dependencies. The following installer
command options list the packages in the order in which you must install these
packages.
Table 16-2 describes the VCS package installation options and the corresponding
command to view the list of packageswould suggest to have a look in the guide for information
