Configuring environment settings for the package or RPM installer


You can configure environment settings for installing the Network Shell or RSCD agent with the Oracle Solaris SVR4 package installer or RPM Package Manager (RPM) installer.

To configure packages with environment settings:

  1. Create a text file named nsh-install-defaults in the /tmp directory. The file must belong to root.
  2. In the file, create an entry for each variable, you want to set. Then for each variable you enter in the file, create another entry to export the variable. For example:
    NSH_INSTALL_SKEL=1
    export NSH_INSTALL_SKEL 

    Warning

    Note

    The nsh-install-defaults file can include the same agent settings as for silent installation of the agent. However, do not include settings for INSTALL_DIR and NSH_DIR.

    The following table describes how to set each possible variable:The [confluence_table-plus] macro is a standalone macro and it cannot be used inline.

  3. Save /tmp/nsh-install-defaults.
  4. Run the installer. See Using the Solaris SVR4 package installer to install NSH and the RSCD agent or Using RPM to install NSH or the RSCD agent.
