# SAMTERM=dtterm ignite

# 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 should specify an IP address

in the DISPLAY variable.

Q: Why do I see a problem while using March 2013 HP-UX OE media as install

media?

A: A problem occurred while using the March 2013 HP-UX OE media

as install media. This issue is common with the following

configurations, but there can be other instances too:

 HPVM Guest or vPar using virtual or physical DVD

 Some standalone systems, such as rx5670

The following are the symptoms associated with the issue:

 During installation of HP-UX 11i v3 March 2013 from physical

or virtual media, the installation aborts unexpectedly

and displays the following error:

Checking configuration for consistency...

NOTE: run_cmd: Process: 113 (net_cfg_prep): killed

by signal: 11.

ERROR: Could not open /tmp/env.vars: No such

file or directory errno = 2).

ERROR: Could not execute net_cfg_prep

NOTE: System rebooting...

Shutdown at 10:36 (in 0 minutes)

This is caused by an Ignite-UX issue and is tracked in QXCR1001268768.

settings are finalized and installation started, the following

error message is displayed on the client console:
