HP-UX 11i Installation and Update Guide, March 2003

Updating to HP-UX 11i
How to Update to HP-UX 11i
Chapter 6 119
When the -i option is specified, swinstall’s interactive user interface is
active only when swinstall is running to load software from each source
location. When installing from HP-UX 11i CDs, you will have to select
non-default software twice; once for each CD. If you do set swinstall
options like match_target, be sure to re-select those options in the
second swinstall session.
For help using swinstall in interactive mode, see the swinstall (1M)
manpage or the Software Distributor Administration Guide.
Updating to a 64-bit OS
IMPORTANT Make sure that your system can support the 64-bit OS before running
this command. For more information, see “Updating to 64-bit OS” on
page 34.
If you have decided to upgrade an HP-UX 11i 32-bit system to a 64-bit
OS, use the following command:
•CD-ROM: /usr/sbin/update-ux -s /cdrom -a 64
•DVD: /usr/sbin/update-ux -s /dvdrom -a 64
Updating Netscape Directory Server
If you have the HP J3667AA Netscape Directory Server (NDS) version
3.1 and plan to continue using NDS with HP-UX 11i, you should update
to 11i as explained in “Installing or Updating Netscape Directory Server”
on page 32. Be sure to specify the new NDS bundle in the update-ux
command. For example, this command updates to the default HP-UX 11i
Operating Environment and also installs the new NDS 6.02 bundle,
J4258CA:
•CD-ROM: /usr/sbin/update-ux -s /cdrom HPUX11i-OE J4258CA
•DVD: /usr/sbin/update-ux -s /dvdrom HPUX11i-OE J4258CA
For instructions on migrating your directory server database to version
6.02 after installing the new version of NDS, refer to the Netscape
document, Netscape Directory Server Administrator’s Guide, available on
the Netscape web site:
