SunScreen EFS Release 3.0 Installation Guide

Preparing the Screen and Administration Station

SunScreen EFS 3.0 runs on Solaris 2.6 and Solaris 7 operating environments for SPARC and x86 platforms. If you are running Solaris 2.5.1, or earlier, you must upgrade your operating environment to at least Solaris 2.6.

Minimally, the Screen must have installed the Core System Support software group, and the Administration Station must have installed the End User Distribution software group. Prior to installing SunScreen EFS 3.0, additional Solaris packages are required and must be installed.


Caution - Caution -

Do not reinstall the Core System Support software group if you are upgrading from either SunScreen EFS 1.1 or 2.0 to SunScreen EFS 3.0, as described in Chapter 6.
