Where is DiskSuite 4.2.1 in Solaris 8?

Well,

I wouldn't expect that I could make a summary this fast!

It's pleasant to know that a vendor's Technical Support can beat the

response and helpfulness of Sun Manager mailing list!

Sun Technical Support got back to me after I sent a similar

question to it around the same time I made a post to the list:

Here is an excerpt from Sun's Tech Support engineer:

  I have loaded the solaris 8 software and found that the information I

  was given is wrong. The software packages are on the Solaris 8

  software cd 2 of 2.

  You may view the packages by:

  /Solaris_8/EA/products/DiskSuite_4.2.1/sparc/Packages

  You can install each manually or have them installed for you.

  To do the install via GUI, go to:

  /Solaris_8/EA/installer A window will prompt for your root password

  and start the installation GUI.

  I believe that this should rectify any previous problems. I apologize

  for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

It's accurate and courteous. For a company that already multi-billion

dollar market cap, Sun is doing something right.

Sincerely,

Chin Fang
