3. Use the client's console to boot from the Ignite-UX server.
4. Delete the io.info file in the client's directory.
When using the graphical interface, why do errors occur when opening a terminal
window to a client?
If errors occur when Ignite-UX attempts to bring up a terminal to a client (for instance, to enter a
password), it can be so because hpterm does not work with some name-services (like LDAP) and
is unable to resolve a hostname specified in the DISPLAY environment variable.
For HP-UX 11.23, the following patch introduced support for an environment variable SAMTERM:
PHSS_31817 s700_800 11.23 ObAM Patch
The value of this variable will determine which type of terminal is opened.
To make use of this variable, run Ignite as follows:
# SAMTERM=dtterm ignite
or
# SAMTERM=xterm ignite
This variable is only supported on 11.23 with PHSS_31817 installed. 11.31 will use xterm, which
does not have the hostname resolution problem. On 11.11 or 11.23 systems without the patch,
you must specify an IP address in the DISPLAY variable.
Why am I getting the message pax: Cannot access /sbin/pax_enh : No
such file or directory?
If you try archiving using pax format, you see the following message: pax: Cannot access
/sbin/pax_enh: No such file or directory
pax: PAX-ENH product must be installed to enable the options -A, -o exclude, and -o graph.
WARNING! The pax command returned a non-zero exit status (exit status 1).
You must install PAX-ENH product to create pax format tape archives using make_tape_recovery,
even on 11.31.
