Hello all,


Im new to solaris after coming from a windows enviroment. I have to get

netbackup 6 onto a solaris 9 box that has only 700mb left on / and i
understand i need around 800mb for the netbackup install.
I do have other partitions with gigs of disk space. Can anybody give me

advice on how to get round the space issue? im not sure if i understand

the installers "alternate root" install option!!


Many thanks

All you have to do is tell it that its default directory is not ok, and
to specify another one.  It will say something like "installing into
/opt/openv. Is that OK?"  You say NO, then give it a name of where you
want it to go, such as /data, or whatever.  It will then put it in
/data/openv.
