HP-UX 11i Test Procedures
Starting Points
The systems chosen for the test platform were loaded with 10.20 (32-bit) or 11.0 (64-bit or 32-bit)
with MCOE (Mission Critical Operating Environment) products from either the September 2000 or
March 2001 application releases. This provided the most comprehensive product test coverage.
The updates were then performed from a super depot containing all the OEs, as well as from two
depots simulating updating from media.
The following machines will be used for update testing.
