Following up, we have a couple of problems:
- Conflicts between man pages and example manifests which led to my
incorrect initial analysis below. The original manifest was correct as
that's how SVR4 transfers are implemented.
- There's a bug in AbstractSVR4._transfer; it calls Popen.poll() yet
doesn't account for a returncode value of None, which is clearly
documented to mean the process is still running.
Alexander, you may be able to work around this by breaking it up into 4
different software nodes that each do one package so that each one
finishes before it can poll and hit this bug, but that's a long shot.

Hi,
I am trying to install VTS packages in SVR4 form at S11U1 install stage.

I can install these SVR4 packages without problems after a regular
install
using 'y | pkgadd -d
/net/vespa-ha1-nfs.west.sun.com/export/ds01/d567/projects
/deg/RELEASE/VTSM4_T5/build6'
Here is the section of my manifest:

</software_data>
</software>
</ai_instance> <-------- This is closing of ai_instance section

I wonder if I missed something in the manifest of we need to disable the
Check
Points on SVR4 packages somehow?
Sorry the error message is so unhelpful.
Publishers apply only for IPS types; for SVR4 there's a dir element you
use instead. The correct instantiation should be something like:
<software type="SVR4">
<source>
<dir
path="/net/vespa-ha1-nfs.west.sun.com/export/ds01/d567/projects/deg/RELEASE/VTSM4_T5/build6"/>
</source>
<software_data action="install">
<name>SUNWvts</name>
<name>SUNWvtsts</name>
<name>SUNWvtse</name>
<name>SUNWvtsi</name>
<name>SUNWvtsr</name>
<name>SUNWvtstk</name>
<name>SUNWvtsmn</name>
<name>SUNWvtss</name>
</software_data>
</software>
