In this article, we will show you how to install and use CAM software 6.5 12 on different operating systems, such as Solaris, Linux, and Windows. We will also explain how to download CAM software and patches from My Oracle Support (MOS), and how to troubleshoot common installation issues.
Downloading CAM Software and Patches
Before installing CAM software, you need to download the software and any required patches from MOS. To do this, you need to have a MOS account and access to the System Administration/Storage Management category on http://www.sun.com/download. The current URL for downloading CAM software is: http://www.sun.com/download/index.jsp?cat=Systems%20Administration&tab=3&subcat=Storage%20Management.
There are two ways to download CAM software and patches from MOS: by knowing the patch number or by searching for the product name. The patch number for CAM software 6.5 12 is 1296274.1[^1^]. You can enter this number in the Patch Search field on MOS and download the software. Alternatively, you can search for "Sun StorageTek Common Array Manager" in the Product or Family field on MOS and select the version 6.5 12 from the list of results.
After downloading the CAM software, you also need to download any available and corresponding CAM patch that includes bug fixes and/or new array firmware. The patch number for CAM patch 6.5 12 is 147147-02[^1^]. You can download it using the same methods as above.
Installing CAM Software
There are two types of installation of CAM software: on a local management host or on a central management server. A local management host is a host that has direct access to the storage arrays through a host bus adapter (HBA) or an Ethernet connection. A central management server is a host that manages multiple local management hosts remotely through a network connection.
You can install CAM software using either a GUI installer or a CLI installer. The GUI installer provides a wizard that guides you through the installation process. The CLI installer provides a script that you can run with different options and parameters. For simplicity, we will use the GUI installer in this article.
