• LVM layouts in Ignite-UX, with certain LUN sizes, no longer generate errors from
vgcreate.
•The save_config command has been updated to set the contiguous_allocation
value correctly on VxVM mirrored volumes.
•The /usr/include/sys directory has been added to the
/opt/ignite/recovery/mnr_essentials file for inclusion when using
make_[tape/net]_recovery.
•The is_volatile attribute is now preserved in the
/var/opt/ignite/depots/recovery_cmds depot by pkg_rec_depot thus avoiding
swverify errors when installing clients from this depot.
•The make_[tape/net]_recovery tools have been updated to:
— support file sizes up to 8 GB for HP-UX 11i v1 and later, though these tools only
support file sizes up to 2 GB for the 11.00 and 10.20 releases;
— recover mount points in the essentials list that are in non-root volume group
using the options of -x include and -x inc_entire;
— describe the function of the _hp_ignore_sw_impact variable in the WARNINGS
section of instl_adm (4);
— install an archive file size that is greater than 2 GB.
• Installation and recovery of Itanium-based and PA-RISC servers and clients now
occurs automatically by Ignite-UX detecting the hardware type and installing the
correct operating system binaries accordingly.
• Large file impacts, where the file size is greater than 2 GB, are now computed
accurately.
• The call to “vxdisk online,” when configuring VxVM layouts, was removed as it was
unnecessary and could cause problems in client installs in limited circumstances.
• The GUI has been enhanced to allow the _hp_addnl_fs_free_pct parameter to be
modified from the
Additional... button of the Basic tab. This allows you to more finely
tune disk space allocation. See instl_adm (4).
NOTE This is the final release of Ignite-UX that contains support for installation and recovery
of HP-UX 10.20. The Ignite-UX-10-20 bundle and its content will not be provided in
future versions of Ignite-UX. If you want to continue to support HP-UX 10.20 clients, you
must retain an Ignite-UX server that has this or an earlier version installed.
