HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suite Version A.02.01 for HP-UX 11iv3 Release Notes, Edition 2 (May 2010)

The process is straight forward for non-OE SG SMS bundles. Follow the steps in
“Installing HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suite” (page 30) for a SG SMS
installation from the SG SMS media (DVD). Then the HP-UX update can be done
independently using the HP-UX installation media (DVD).
— For SG SMS Operating Environment (OE) bundle upgrades, additional planning is
necessary. The SG SMS software provided on the SG SMS DVD relies on products and
filesets that are provided on the HP-UX OE (DCOE, or HAOE) DVD. If the new SG SMS
OE bundle version requires new versions of Serviceguard and ECMT that are delivered
on the HP-UX OE media, Serviceguard and ECMT must be updated together with the
SG SMS OE bundle upgrade (not with the HP-UX update). For the HP-UX update,
Serviceguard and ECMT are excluded from the update when you run the update-ux
command. For the SG SMS OE bundle upgrade, the appropriate (supported) versions
of Serviceguard and ECMT must be added to the software depot that the SG SMS OE
bundle will be upgraded from. See “Upgrading a SG SMS OE Bundle - Independent
from an HP-UX Update” (page 36) for more information.
Updating HP-UX and SG SMS Simultaneously
This section describes the process for updating the HP-UX version and the HP Serviceguard
Storage Management Suite Operating Environment (OE) bundle version in one step using
update-ux. This procedure is necessary when an upgrade to a new SG SMS OE bundle depends
on a later Serviceguard version than the one that is currently installed.
General information about updating to HP-UX 11i v3 with update-ux, is available at:
http://docs.hp.com/en/oshpux11iv3.html#Installing%20and%20Updating
1. Copy the contents of your 11i v3 OE media to an HP-UX depot, for example:
swcopy -s /11iv3OE_DVD \* @ /var/depots/my_hpux_depot
If there are multiple 11i v3 OE DVDs, repeat this with each DVD.
You can also use the interactive swcopy command to automatically mount and unmount
the DVD, for example:
swcopy -i \* @ /var/depots/my_hpux_depot
- then select Find Local CD-ROM in the Specify Source screen.
2. Copy the contents of the HP-UX Serviceguard and HP Storage Management Products media,
for example /11iv3SG_DVD, into the same HP-UX depot. If there are multiple Serviceguard
and Storage Management DVDs, repeat this with each DVD:
swcopy -s /11iv3SG_DVD \* @ /var/depots/my_hpux_depot
Or use interactive swcopy as shown in step 1.
3. If you plan to use this HP-UX depot to update systems other than the system where the
depot resides, the HP-UX depot must be registered. The swcopy command will automatically
register the depot when it is first created, but it is harmless to register it again just to be sure
it is visible to other systems. To do this, enter:
swreg -l depot @ /var/depots/my_hpux_depot
