Unpacking Session State Register Software
This section assumes that you are installing Steel-Belted Radius Carrier on your Solaris server for the first time or that you are installing Steel-Belted Radius Carrier in a directory other than the one used by previous installations—a clean installation.
These instructions may be used for unpacking software on any type of node host. Perform this step on each node host in the cluster before proceeding to the next step.

To install the Steel-Belted Radius Carrier server software:
On the Solaris server:
Log in to the Solaris server as root.
Copy the Steel-Belted Radius Carrier installation files from their download location to the Solaris server. Make sure to copy them to a local or remote hard disk partition that is readable by root.
This example copies the files from a download directory to the /tmp/sbr directory.
Execute:
mkdir -p /opt/tmp
cp -pR /tmp/sbr/solaris/* /opt/tmp/Extract the Steel-Belted Radius Carrier installation package.
For 64-bit Solaris, execute:
cd /tmp/sbr

Execute:
gunzip sbr-cl-8.6.0.R-1.sparcv9.tgz
tar xf sbr-cl-8.6.0.R-1.sparcv9.tarVerify that the extraction worked and confirm the name of the package file.
For 64-bit Solaris, execute:
ls -ltrtotal 216256 drwxr-xr-x 4 Xtreece other 370 Aug 24 17:01 JNPRsbr.pkg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 110712276 Aug 25 09:44 sbr-cl-8.6.0.R-1.sparcv9.tar

Depending on the system configuration, the script prompts you to create the /opt/JNPRsbr directory if it does not exist, over-write an already-extracted package, or any of several other questions.
The selected base directory </opt/JNPRsbr> must exist before installation is attempted.
Do you want this directory created now [y,n,?,q]
Answer the question appropriately (or change the extraction path if necessary) so that the script can proceed.
To accept the default directory as a target, enter y.
