Solaris 8 Admin Pack Installation Guide
		Chapter 2. Preparing Your Solaris 8 Admin Pack Installation

Hardware and Software Requirements

The following lists the system requirements necessary for you to install the Solaris 8 Admin Pack and the AdminSuite client.

A CD-ROM drive attached to the system where you plan to install the Admin Pack products.
The system on which you install the Solaris 8 Admin Pack products must run the Solaris 8 operating environment. Many of the products also run on earlier versions of the Solaris environment (as mentioned in their online product documentation) but this capability is not supported as part of the Solaris 8 Admin Pack. Solaris Easy Access Server 3.0 supports the Solaris 2.6 and Solaris 7 operating environments.
Note - If you attempt to install either the product CD or the Documentation CD on a non-Solaris 8 system using Web Start, a message will indicate that the installation is not valid. You will not be able to proceed. If you use the pkgadd command to install, the installation will be completed but the software will not operate properly.
PCs running Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT for installing SEAS client software.

Table 2-1 lists the disk space the Solaris 8 Admin Pack requires in each disk partition. Note that disk space requirements are approximate and may vary. The requirements in Table 2-1 include the space needed to install the components on both the product CD and the Documentation CD.
