Installing HP-UX 11.0 and Updating HP-UX 10.x to 11.0 HP 9000 Computers Edition 1

86 Chapter 4
Configuring an Ignite-UX Server
Installing Server Software
For example, in the Korn Shell or Posix Shell, you would type the
following, using your system_name:
export DISPLAY=system_name:0.0
• Product media to load onto the server your Ignite-UX and any
software depots you plan to distribute to target systems.
• Network access to the clients to be installed. Client and Server must
be on the same subnet if you plan to do the initial boot of the client
over the network. A "helper" system can be used to get between
subnets. The bootsys command also works between subnets.
Supported Peripherals
With the disk space provision above, all disk drives that are supported on
HP 9000 platforms are supported for installation.
Disk arrays can be installed with HP-UX, but the installation tasks do
not support configuring an array. See your array documentation for
configuration information.
The HP-UX client-side installation tools support VT100 and Wyse 60
terminals, compatible emulations, and all HP terminals.
Supported File System Types and Layouts
The HP-UX 10.x file system layout is quite different from HP-UX 9.0x
releases. The 10.x file system is modeled after the UNIX™ SVR4 and
OSF/1 systems. This layout provides such benefits as the separation of
OS software from application software, and it also resembles the UNIX
standard layout used by many other computer companies.
File System Types HP-UX 10.x supports the following file system types:
• UFS/HFS or VxFS (Journaled File System) on local disk volumes.
• NFS.
Disk Layouts The file system installed by Ignite-UX will be supported on the following
disk layouts:
• "Whole disk" (single file system, single swap partition disk layouts).
• The Logical Volume Manager (LVM).
