Verify Prerequisites

You find the Solaris native package for each of the supported Solaris operating systems in the NativePackages directory of the CA ControlMinder Endpoint Components for UNIX DVD.

• pre.tar
• _Solaris_PKG*.tar.Z
• convert_eac_pkg
• customize_eac_pkg

The _Solaris_PKG*.tar is the native package for Solaris. The pre.tar file is a compressed tar file containing installation messages and the CA ControlMinder license agreement.

Follow these steps:

1. Copy the installation files from the media to a temporary directory $PACKAGE_DIR (readable for group and world). For example, /tmp.

   cp /mnt/AC_DVD/NativePackages/_Solaris_PKG*.tar.Z $PACKAGE_DIR
   cp /mnt/AC_DVD/NativePackages/pre.tar             $PACKAGE_DIR
   cp /mnt/AC_DVD/NativePackages/*_eac_pkg           $PACKAGE_DIR
   

2. Unpack the tar archive in $PACKAGE_DIR.

   cd $PACKAGE_DIR
   zcat _Solaris_PKG*.tar.Z | tar -xvf -
   

   Important: Ensure that file attributes for the entire directory structure of the package are preserved during extraction, or Solaris native packaging tools will consider the package corrupt.

3. Verify that your system supports the correct versions of the C++ library.
