Error I was getting that is described below was related to corrupted
installation CDs. Solved by recopy of all installation binaries.
Users suggested:
a). I haven't installed M062 dataserver however I did install M060
dataserver on Solaris 10 without problems. I had java 1.6, set the path
as /opt/ptc/dataserver/osia for the install directory, and installed as
the oracle user.
b). I have M060 data servers running on Solaris 10 in zones. It is
possible.
c). I upgraded/migrated from Ilink 3.4 M050 to Ilink 3.4 M060.
Basically upgrading to Ilink 3.4 M060 is 6 basic steps:
1. create ilink dump file of existing install 2. shutdown existing
install and backup 3. remove/rename old install (assuming you are
installing on the same
server)
4. install M060 as new install
5. import dump file
6. run ilink_patches
d). You must have all pre-reqs, but we had several things that kill us
on our HP-UX upgrade from M011 to m012.
