may result in errors or failure. Recovery archives should not be created which contain data
residing on large storage units listed above.
NOTE: Ignite-UX is not intended to be used instead of backup tools to save or restore large
quantities of application data.
• When a golden image is created for a B.11.23 or B.11.31 client using the pax format of the
pax command, it is not possible to run archive_impacts on it from the server if the server
is not running at least B.11.23 with the PAX-Enh product installed because currently there is
no version of the pax command for B.11.11 that understands the pax format.
• The size of individual swap/dump and swap volumes created by Ignite-UX during a cold
install or recovery on HP-UX 11i v1 is limited to 128 GB. On HP-UX 11i v2 and later the limit
is 1TB from Ignite-UX version C.7.16.283 onwards. The following table shows the maximum
sizes for different volumes that Ignite-UX can create:

4GiB*4GiB*4GiB*Dump
1TiB**1TiB**128GiB**Swap/Dump
*if there is a disk with a capacity larger than this it becomes the new maximum value. In
practical terms this value can never be reached if the largest disk is less than 1TiB in size since
dump and dump/swap volumes must be contiguous.
**The smallest of this value or maximum dump size.
Networking issues
• Ignite-UX Hewlett-Packard network interface support matrix.
The only interfaces supported for performing a network boot from a server are the built-in
ethernet (10-Base-T, 100-Base-T, and Gigabit) on all newer systems. The T, V, H, G, I, E class
and 9000/8*7S systems do not support network boot. Other network interfaces that are
supported (see the table below) can only be used when the system is booted using the
"bootsys" command or booted from an Ignite-UX tape or CD. See the bootsys(1M) and
make_boot_tape(1M) manpages.
