Veritas InfoScale 7.3.1 IPS repo

Let's create a Veritas InfoScale 7.3.1 IPS repo today. Log in into the VERITAS Entitlement Management System to download Veritas_InfoScale_7.3.1_Solaris_SPARC.tar.gz. We just need one file from the archive to proceed.

$ gzcat Veritas_InfoScale_7.3.1_Solaris_SPARC.tar.gz | tar xf - ./dvd1-sol_sparc/sol11_sparc/pkgs/VRTSpkgs.p5p

Good, let's create the IPS repo now.
