Veritas

Anyone can help me in the installation of Veritas 3.32 on Solaris 8.
Here is what I am getting on console

Installing VxVM for Solaris 8
awk: record `Patch: 108528-13 Obs...' has too many fields
record number 12

Alternate Pathing (AP) version 2.3.1 has been detected.

This version of VxVM requires the following patch(es) to co-exist
with AP 2.3.1:

110722

Install the above patch(es) before you continue the VxVM
installation. This installation will now be aborted.

pkgadd: ERROR: request script did not complete successfully

Installation of <VRTSvxvm> failed.
No changes were made to the system.

Thanks in advance.

If you haven't done so already, I would get the patch and install it.

Patch-ID# 110722-03
Keywords: Starfire Alternate Pathing
Synopsis: AP 2.3.1: AP needs to provide interface for Veritas DMP compatibility
Date: Nov/21/2001

Solaris Release: 2.6 7 8

SunOS Release: 5.6 5.7 5.8

Unbundled Product: Alternate Pathing

Unbundled Release: 2.3.1

Xref:

Topic: AP 2.3.1: AP needs to provide interface for Veritas DMP compatibility

Then try to reinstall the Veritas package and see if it works (even with the other error from awk).

The awk error is documented in SunSolve on a install of SUNWutkio but the install was still successful - which is why your real problem may only be the patch you need to have before the install)

Yeah, I have installed patch 110722-03 successfully before the installation of Veritas.

Any other suggestions.

It was a 'awk' problem.
Solution is like this

cd /usr/bin
mv awk awrk.orig
ln -s nawk awk

Note: awk cannot handle beyond 200 records.
