Creating Custom man Page in Solaris

Hello experts,

I'm creating a custom man page. I have two unix boxes - one Hp & the other Solaris
On HP, I simply moved the .Z file to /usr/man/man7.Z/ and after that "man myPage" worked.

I then tried to do the same on Solaris. First thing is the relevant directory seemed to be /usr/share/man/man7/
Also, when I tried to move the .Z file to this location, it said File-system is read only. I tried this with root. (wq, !wq didnt work)

Can anyone tell me whether /usr/share/man/man7/ is the right place and how to move the file to this place?

Thanks
Sridhar
