Setting Up a Storage Area Network
To install Xsan on a computer that has no keyboard or monitor:
1
Log in to a computer that does have a keyboard and monitor, and then insert the
Xsan disc.
2
Open the Terminal application (in /Applications/Utilities/).
3
In Terminal, copy the Xsan installer package to the remote computer:
$ scp -r /Volumes/Xsan/Install_xsan.mpkg user@remotehost:/tmp/
where
user
is an administrator user on the remote computer and
remotehost
is the IP
address or DNS name of the computer you want to install on.
4
Log in to the remote computer:
$ ssh user@remotehost
where
user
and
remotehost
are the same as in the previous step.
5
Run the installer on the headless computer:
$ sudo installer -pkg /tmp/Install_Xsan.mpkg -target /
Or, if you want to watch the progress of installation, add the
-verbose
parameter:
$ sudo installer -verbose -pkg /tmp/Install_Xsan.mpkg -target /
