How to add, remove, check packages and patches in Solaris

Posted by on
In this post we will show you, how we can manage the packages and patches, and what are the command that we will use in order to install or remove them

pkgadd: add a package or packages


#pkgadd -d . LGTOclnt
Processing package instance <LGTOclnt> from </solaris_64>
NetWorker Client(sparc) 7.6.5.0.Build.1160

California, Berkeley and its contributors.

To setup NetWorker you need to specify a directory to store various
data files in. For a NetWorker client or storage node the default
directory of /var/nsr is acceptable. However, for a NetWorker server,
this directory can become quite large and should reside on a big enough
file system.
Below is a list of file systems which you might consider:
