while trying to install VSF basic on a solaris 10 release 7
installed with the Core cluster, I finally got it.
I needs this two packages:

pkgadd -d /mnt/Solaris_10/Product SUNWscpr SUNWscpu

or fails silent and miserably

Just have a beer on me if you step this nasty thing.
Symantec should do better while handling errors

OMFG!!!!!
Verifying the install systems fully qualified hostnames.


Querying fully qualified domain name of host "crasher" ........................................... fail

Press [Return] to continue:
Unable to find Fully Qualifed Host Name for crasher!

It installed but fails again with no clear reason..
