Additional information

Applying the fix pack with the USB Key

Execute this procedure while running as user sysadmin

Software appliance users must ensure that the USB device is available to the SDMC virtual machine.

  1. Attach the USB key to the appliance
  2. Identify the mount point by running the following command:
    lsmediadev

    Sample result
    device=/dev/cdrom,mount_point=/media/cdrom,type=1,description=CD/DVD
    device=/dev/vdh1,mount_point=/media/vdh1,type=3,description=USB flash memory device</li>
  3. Mount the USB key by running the following commands. Use the mount_point listed in the lsmediadev command output.
    mount /media/vdh1
    ls /media/vdh1

    The ls /media/vdh1 command output should include the following:
    ifixMF53525

    (The following step assumes that all of the update files are in the ifixMF53525 directory on the USB key.)
  4. Create an update directory and copy the USB contents to the update directory by running the following commands:
    mkdir -p updates
    cp /media/vdh1/ifixMF53525/* updates/
    umount /media/vdh1
  5. Install the mandatory updates by executing the following commands:
    SYSNAME=`smcli lssys -t OperatingSystem -w "OSType=23"`
    echo $SYSNAME

      (The output should display the hostname of your SDMC appliance)
    smcli installneeded -n $SYSNAME -v -F /home/sysadmin/updates
    smshutdown -t now -r
