Supported Operating System

The adapter drivers have been tested on Solaris 9 with Sparc platforms in
both 32 and 64 bit environments. While the drivers should work on Solaris
8 and Solaris 10 platforms, they have not been tested on those operating
systems; consequently, those platforms are not supported at this time.

Installing the Driver

To install the driver, perform the following procedure:

1. Install the appropriate package for either Solaris 32 or 64 bit version of

the OS.

The 32 bit version of the adapter driver is stored in the following
subdirectories on the Installation CD and a driver installation diskette:

ˆ

Installation CD: \drivers\Solaris\32bit

ˆ

Driver installation diskette: \Solaris\32bit

The 64 bit version of the adapter driver is stored in the following
subdirectories on the Installation CD and a driver installation diskette:

ˆ

Installation CD: \drivers\Solaris\64bit

ˆ

Driver installation diskette: \Solaris\64bit

For instructions on how to create a driver installation diskette, refer to
“Creating a Driver Installation Disk” on page 68.

2. Uncompress the package with the following command:

uncompress atnic_sparcxx_133.tar.Z

3. Extract the files with this command:

tar -xvf atnic_sparcxx_133.tar

4. Install the package from the directory that contains the extracted files

with this command:

pkgadd -d atnic
