Problem Updating
HP-UX 10.20 System
Using CDs
If you are using CDs to update an HP-UX 10.20 system to the
current HP-UX 11i v1 (B.11.11) Operating Environments
(OEs), the update-ux command will fail because HP-UX 10.20
does not support Rockridge extension.
What To Do
To resolve this problem, do one of the following:
If you have a DVD drive (internal or external) you can update
to the latest HP-UX 11i v1 OEs using the pfs_mount (1M)
command to mount the HP-UX 11i v1 OEs DVD. You can then
update to the desired HP-UX 11i v1 OEs.
If you do not have a DVD drive, you must first update to the
desired HP-UX 11i v1 December 2003 OEs and then update to
the desired HP-UX 11i v1 December 2006 OEs.
DMI May Core Dump
During Update
If the Desktop Management Interface (DMI) for HP-UX is
running during an update, the DMI processes that are
running may core dump.
What To Do
If you have DMI installed on your system, you must stop DMI
(B6816AA) before running update-ux. Use the following
command to stop the DMI processes running on your system:
/sbin/init.d/Dmisp stop
