6 On the Welcome screen, select “Install the Mac OS X Server software.”
7 Select the server on which you want to install the software (if you’re installing locally, skip
this step). Server Assistant will lead you through the steps necessary to successfully install
the software.
Software Update Tool
You use Software Update Tool to find new versions of software and install them remotely on
a server. You can run Software Update Tool from an admin computer. If you need help with
this tool, read Chapter 4, “Using Command-Line Tools.”
1 Open Terminal and log in to the target server using SSH.
2 At the prompt, type:
softwareupdate
You’ll see a list of available updates. For example:
-BrazilianPortugueseSWU
“Brazilian Portuguese Language Support” (10.1.2), 6268K
-PrintingEpsonEU
“Epson European Printer Drivers”(1.0), 31568K
-PrintingEpsonUS
“Epson US Model Printer Drivers” (1.0), 30074K
3 Type softwareupdate and any items you want to install. For example:
softwareupdate PrintingEpsonUS PrintingEpsonEU
The tool then downloads and installs the software on the server.
4 If the software package requires that you restart the server, type:
/sbin/reboot
or
/sbin/shutdown -r
Installer Tool
You use the Installer Tool to install software packages from a CD-ROM on a mounted remote
server volume. The Installer Tool doesn’t perform any authentication, so if a package needs
authentication (set in the package’s .info file), you must log in as root or use the sudo
command (see “Setting Up Administrator Permissions” on page 81).
