original release
Ignite-UX (IUX) is an HP-UX administration toolset to help you install and configure (or
recover) HP-UX systems.
The complete Ignite-UX product, with support for HP-UX 11i, 11.0 and 10.20, is
available on the first CD of the 11i OE media kit.
NOTE Ignite-UX will not be installed by default when updating the entire operating system
from 10.20 or 11.00 to 11i even if the system currently is an Ignite-UX server.
Updating your Ignite-UX server to 11i and Ignite -UX version B.3.4 (or newer) will
ensure that you have the latest version of make_net_recovery and
make_tape_recovery. The command make_net_recovery has added most of the
command line options that used to be only in make_recovery. The
command make_tape_recovery is the replacement for make_recovery and allows you
to control tape creation on a client system from your Ignite-UX server. (For details on
updating an Ignite-UX server, see the HP-UX 11i Installation and Update Guide.)
If you are cold-installing a system, you can select Ignite-UX from the software selection
screen to be installed at the same time the rest of the OS is installed.
By default, running Ignite-UX will install the core HP-UX 11i files, networking drivers,
and the OE. You can deselect the OE but you cannot install an OE subset using
Ignite-UX. Also, some of the networking drivers are not deselectable.
NOTE If you are using Ignite-UX version B.3.3 and are experiencing any problems, upgrade to
version B.3.5 or later.
The four most recent Ignite-UX B.x releases for HP-UX 11.00/11i are as follows:
December 2001–B.3.5; March 2002–B.3.6; June 2002–B.3.7; September–B.3.8. The last
supported release for Ignite-UX A.x for HP-UX 10.20 is June 2002–A.3.7.95.
Impact
Although Ignite-UX, version B, no longer supports the installation of 10.01 and 10.10
machines for 11i, it will continue to support 10.20 and later operating system revisions.
However, version B will only operate on HP-UX machines that have at least 64MB of
RAM. (Previously, HP-UX machines that had at least 32MB of RAM were supported.
Version A is not affected by these changes.)
