To RTI, PatM, or whomever,
I think this was fixed back in 3.7.xx. and was not a problem in OI16. Do a search on RDKINSTALL you will see.
This was driving me crazy as I have been trying to apply an RDK without success in OI32. If you do an RDKINSTALL in OI32 and more than one user is logged in, RDKINSTALL will not work. As soon as everyone is logged off, RDKINSTALL works!
Will this be fixed in OI32.
Thanks,
Ray

However, if you are installing on an runtime engine, then any restrictions impossed by the runtime engine will still be enforced, which could cause problems with the upgrade. Also, if the install attempts to change any shated files at the OS level, they could fail.

Are you saying that this has always been the case? I don't remember seeing this problem in OI16 . Well I be darn. It must have just been coincidence that when I have previously run RDK's that no one was logged in. (Talk about clueless)
Well I try to stop being so helpful. Until next time,

Thanks for the info. Glad to learn something new everyday. Plus, I didn't know about RDKINSTALLMODULE.

Ray,
Have a good look at the RDKMODULEINSTALL and also the RDKDEPLOY_EQUATES - has implications for what appears in the SYSUPGRADE table, and the %PROCESS% record of that table. With this knowledge you can have full control over the install process.
