Installation
Eloquence is available as a depot package and is installed with the HP-UX
swinstall utility.
Eloquence installation files available for download from the
Eloquence web site are compressed with gzip and must be uncompressed
before installation.
- Eloquence-B0840-*-ia64.depot.gz
-
This Eloquence depot file should be used for HP Integrity systems (Itanium platform).
It installs both 32 bit and 64 bit components.
This build requires HP-UX 11.31 or later.
The asterisk (*) denotes the version of the installation archive. Higher
numbers indicate a newer installation archive.
Installing the depot file
As "superuser" (root), follow the steps below to install the Eloquence
software.
-
Unpack the archive at a temporary location, such as /tmp or /var/tmp.
/usr/contrib/bin/gzip -d Eloquence-B0840-*.depot.gz
This uncompresses the depot file Eloquence-B0840-*.depot.gz
to Eloquence-B0840-*.depot. The compressed archive file is deleted.
- Run "swinstall" by typing:
/usr/sbin/swinstall -s /tmp/Eloquence-B0840-*.depot \*
where /tmp/Eloquence-B0840-*.depot is the absolute path
of the Eloquence-B0840-*.depot file.
Automatic startup of Eloquence server processes during system boot is configured in
the /etc/rc.config.d/eloquence84 configuration file.
