9.2.6.1 Defining the lpp_source Resource Object
When defining the lpp_source object, we will use the /inst.images created
previously (see 9.2.2, “Filesystem Creation” on page 161).
The /inst.images directory will contain the software packages which may be copied
from tape or CD-ROM. This filesystem can also be made available from another
server, using NFS.
The following set of packages is referred to as support images, and these are
required for the NIM operation. The packages' names can be specified in the
Names of Option Packages field. If you leave this field blank, the required
packages will automatically be installed.
bos
bos.rte.up
bos.rte.mp
bos.diag
bos.net
bos.sysmgt
bos.powermgt
bos.info.rte
bos.loc.iso
devices.all
bos.terminfo
X11.base
X11.apps
X11.compat
X11.motif
X11.Dt
X11.msg.en_US
X11.vsm
xlC.rte
To define the lpp_source resource object, proceed as follows:
1. Ensure the /inst.images filesystem is mounted.
2. Enter the following fastpath command:
smitty nim_mkres
3. Select the lpp_source as the resource type.
