Supported versions of Ignite-UX
It is important to periodically review the support status of the Ignite-UX versions you are using to
avoid use beyond End of Support(EOS). These release notes include information about previous
Ignite-UX versions. Some of this information may include details about Ignite-UX versions no longer
supported. The current support status of Ignite-UX versions is available at
http://www.hp.com/go/ignite-ux.
Minimum memory size
During installation and recovery, Ignite-UX uses the system memory to hold a RAM-based installation
environment with a subset of HP-UX. Ignite-UX requires installation and recovery client systems to
have at least a minimum amount of RAM to hold this installation environment while leaving enough
space to run HP-UX. The minimum required RAM size is specific to the HP-UX version to be installed
or recovered. The required minimum memory for this release of Ignite-UX is indicated in the following
table:
Table 3 Minimum required memory
HP IntegrityHP 9000IMM*Client OS
N/A256 MB128 MB11.11
1.0 GB+1.0 GB+N/A11.23
1.5 GB1.5 GBN/A11.31
• The IMM size is the size of the initial memory module on HP 9000 (PA-RISC) systems. The first
memory module must be large enough to hold the install kernel and install file system.
• The Minimum Ignite-UX memory size specified is larger than the original HP-UX release memory
requirement. OS content and install environment changes since initial release requires more
memory. Install or recovery of a system with less memory might take much more time than
expected or might hang.
Disk space requirements
• Ignite-UX servers must have at least 800 MB of free disk space available in /opt/ignite
to install support for all HP-UX releases (B.11.11, B.11.23 and B.11.31).
[This information is current as of C.7.9.]
• To save space, you can install support for only those HP-UX releases which you plan to install
or recover.
• Ignite-UX servers may require significant space in /var/opt/ignite to support clients
systems, store software depots and save archives.
• Installation of Ignite-UX can be done while the system is up. It does not require a system reboot.
Support for non-HP tools
• HP provides CD and DVD writing tools with Ignite-UX at no cost under the terms of the GNU
General Public License(GPL), http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html. The source code is
delivered along with these tools. The tools have been tested to confirm basic functionality
needed to create media for Ignite-UX as described in product documentation. Not all features
or capabilities of these CD and DVD writing tools have been verified to be functional on
HP-UX. HP provides support for the CD and DVD writing tools supplied with Ignite-UX when
they are used as described in Ignite-UX documentation. To provide feedback or report a defect
