If you are updating your system to HP-UX 11.0 32-bit version, no
hardware or firmware updates are required, but note the caution below.
When you update a system to 11.0 32-bit version, you have the following
choices:
• If you are updating a system running HP-UX 10.01, 10.10, or 10.20,
you can update directly to HP-UX 11.0 32-bit version.
• If you are upgrading a system running HP-UX 9.04, first upgrade to
HP-UX 10.01, and then update to HP-UX 11.0 32-bit version.
CAUTION Due to library dependencies, you will also have to follow the
swgettools procedure described in“Updating SD-UX Before
Installing/Updating Software”, even when transitioning within 11.0.
