>However, /usr/lpp is in IBM's Version root which is mounted R/O. > >Is it proper to change Version root's mount mode temporarily to R/W and mkdir >another mountpoint off /usr/lpp for the product I'm installing, or should this >be avoided and made elsewhere? -->Yes. I do this all the time.. Remember to adjust your SMP/E target root with the same value. >Is there a general recommendation where to mount aggregates for non-IBM >products? -->Up to you. I find /usr/lpp to be as convenient as anywhere else. >The vendor says nothing about this. > >Can mount mode of the Version root be changed on the fly by some command or >will this require bouncing the system? -->Yon can remount as read/write on the fly.
